Send files between any devices, no apps required.
PairDrop is the easiest way to share files between your phone, laptop, tablet, and desktop — no matter what operating system they run. Just open it in your browser on any two devices, and they see each other instantly. No apps to download, no accounts to create, no cables needed.
What makes PairDrop worth launching.
Open PairDrop in any browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, or iOS — all devices see each other automatically.
There's nothing to download or install. Just open the web app on each device and you're ready to share.
Pair devices permanently with a 6-digit code or join a temporary public room to share files across different networks.
Transfer photos, videos, documents, and entire folders — or send quick text messages between devices.
Send files of any size — PairDrop transfers them directly between your devices with nothing stored in between.
Save PairDrop to your home screen as a Progressive Web App for quick access and share-menu integration on mobile.
If you fit one of these, PairDrop is probably built for you.
Practical scenarios where PairDrop makes a real difference.
Snap a picture on your Android or iPhone and send it straight to your Windows or Mac laptop — no cables or cloud uploads required.
Quickly transfer a presentation or PDF between your work laptop and a teammate's device, even if they use a different operating system.
Send a video from your desktop to your tablet for watching in another room, or share vacation photos with the family iPad.
Type a text message — like a Wi-Fi password or grocery list — and send it instantly from your computer to your phone.
PairDrop is a web-based file sharing tool that works like magic between any devices on the same network. Open it on your phone and laptop, and they find each other automatically — ready to swap photos, documents, videos, or even short text messages. It works on everything: Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS. There's nothing to install, no account to create, and no file size limits to worry about. PairDrop also works over the internet, letting you share with people outside your home or office by pairing devices permanently or joining a temporary room. It's the cross-platform file sharing solution that just works.
PairDrop is the simplest way to share files between any devices you own, no matter what brand or operating system they run. It's like having AirDrop for everything — Windows, Android, Mac, iPhone, Linux, you name it. People love PairDrop because there's zero friction: no apps to install, no accounts to sign up for, and no confusing setup. Just open the web app on each device and start sharing. It's fast, private (files transfer directly between your devices), and works both on your home network and over the internet.
