LocalSend is a free, open source, cross-platform application that allows you to securely share files and messages with nearby devices over your local network, all without the need for an internet connection.
By removing the dependency on third-party servers, the app eliminates potential bottlenecks and ensures a consistent and secure user experience.
LocalSend uses a secure communication protocol that allows devices to communicate with each other via a REST API. All data is sent securely over HTTPS and the TLS/SSL certificate is generated on the fly on each device, ensuring maximum security.
