ransfer files the easy way, just drag & drop the file and we will handle the rest. Like Apple AirDrop, but works and on all major platforms and computers that don't support AirDrop.
With millions of downloads in the App Store, thousands of happy users and millions of photo and file transfers, this app is a necessary tool for your iOS device.
SIMPLE FILE SHARING
You don't need to be tech-savvy to share files, photos or videos.
AIRDROP SUPPORT FOR OLDER DEVICES
It adds Airdrop-like transfer capability to older devices without official support for Airdrop, like your older Mac or iOS devices with iOS 6.
SIMPLE TO USE
No need to pair devices or set up a transfer to send files or photos. Designed for quick and easy sharing of files, photos, and videos from your other device, photos and videos are automatically saved to the 'Camera roll' album.
NO REGISTRATION
Just open the app and start sharing files, holiday photos, or family videos – no need to enter emails or passwords.
NO FILE TYPE LIMITS
You can transfer any file type, no restrictions. MP3s, images, PDFs, presentations, and way more.
PHOTOS AND VIDEOS
Instashare preserves photo metadata in all transfer directions (EXIF information, location, etc). Transfer in full resolution.
WORKS WITHOUT INTERNET
You don't need to be connected to the internet, just use a local wi-fi or Bluetooth (iOS and OS X only) to transfer files.
BUILT-IN EXTENSION
You can use Instashare with various apps thanks to the system built-in extension – share pictures from Photo library, links from Safari, and other files straight from 3rd party apps.
CLIPBOARD TRANSFER
Stop retyping long URLs and so on. Just copy and transfer it in a few seconds.
Drag a clipboard item & drop it on the device – it will be automatically copied to clipboard on the device.
SECURE
Files and photos are sent only between your devices, without making a copy somewhere in the Cloud. They never leave your local wi-fi network, keeping your files and photos safe.
IOS DEVICE WAKEUP
No need to manually open the mobile app to transfer a file or clipboard to device – just wait a few seconds for the device to appear.
REQUIREMENTS
To transfer files and photos between two devices, both of them need to have this app installed. Mobile apps are free, desktop apps are paid.
Access to a properly configured wi-fi network (or bluetooth between iOS and OS X) is required for this app to work. Some public or private wi-fi networks may be configured to block communication between devices, preventing the transfer connection to be established.
You don't need to use the latest device or OS available, works with older systems as well, from iOS 6, iPad 2 or iPhone 4.

DeskConnect died, long live Instashare!
For those of you who are not familiar with the fact that AirDrop is sometime a hit and miss affair (and trust someone who has tried many ways to get it running faster and easier) I am delighted that there is someone like Lukas, who understands the fact that we (Apple users/fans) want an easy life and a fast workflow.
I was a long term user of DeskConnect and this app ran flawlessly on all my devices including my MacBook Pro.
However, this App has been somewhat crippled lately and last week it died altogether on some of my iPads and today even my iPhone is telling me there is an error with the App.
I searched for a worthy alternative and found Instashare!
And boy do I like it!!!
It connects in seconds once you set it up and give it the rudimentary "Allow" this and that, and a transfer of a photo is as easy as selecting it, and dragging it to the icon of the device you want to send it TO. I installed it immediately on all my devices AND my Mac and so far I can't find a fault!
And wait for this:
today I tried and tried again to send multiple images and documents to my iPad from my MacBook Pro .... using AirDrop. And every time I wanted to transfer multiple images (5-10!!) AirDrop told me it “failed”!!!
Well Apple - that is a big FAIL in my book in 2019❗️
So, as far as I can tell, Instashare is much faster than waiting for the AirDrop thingy to load and transfer anything.
I'm very happy with this App and don't even feel it was expensive, as the convenience it will hopefully give me over time will undoubtedly save me a lot of nerves!
Download and enjoy!
Thanks Lukas!
Keep this app working PLEASE for a long time and keep updating it please!
App
Really slow hardly connects with WiFi then disappears even with the paid version the only way I could get it connect is to pair my other device like iPad to phone with personal hotspot with data not WiFi then it connected grrrrrrrr
Handy tool for owners of old iPads
For the people out there for whom Airdrop is not an option this is a handy tool.
Great iOS 8 Update
Superb update for all the new iOS 8 features.
Auto Saving Photos, at last!!!
The latest update is great in terms of functionality, pretty much does everything it needs to do! However the interface could be improved, very basic and boring. Great update either way!!!
Do not buy
This app does not work, save your money
Slow transfer rate!
Transfer rate pathetically slow, used to be fine until the beta trial was over. Waste of money.
Rubbish. Keeps crashing
Don't waste your money. I have this on my iPhone my iPad and my Mac. It keeps crashing.
Does not work
This app is useless, both my partner and i had the app installed and were in the same room together and the connection lasted no more than five seconds, most infuriating waste of time and money.
