## LocalSend Reviews in United States

### ****- "Needs private photo picker"
Great app to use with Android user friends & family. One thing I miss is the option to pick photos privately without the permission. Please implement that.
-- The Appening, 2025-01-02

### ***-- "URL doesn’t work, app to app does."
When I try to connect to the IP address in browser a browser I get error 403.
-- Bob Petersen, 2024-12-30

### ***** "Awesome"
Best file transfer app hands down. Works instantly and flawlessly
-- Gcolonel826, 2024-12-19

### ***** "Outstanding opensource"
Awesome for using between ipad and Linux computers. I wish more ipad apps were like this. I also wish I found this sooner.
-- Hejiefu, 2024-12-17

### ***** "Amazing, free (donationware), as seamless as Airdrop but works with Windows"
Desktop I use has Windows 10 Pro and my phone is iPhone 14 Pro + I use it on iPad (Pro 11in 3rd gen), all 3 have their latest OS versions, and the app works so smoothly and is very fast. I always had problems setting up other apps/programs of this type, the apple stuff would never communicate with Windows or vice versa, but setting this up on Windows and phone+ipad took maybe 5 minutes. I was finally able to send a ton of photos for from my iPad to my desktop, thank you so much for making this! It works very very fast and I’ve never had issues with crashes on any of my devices although I’ve only been using it (a good bit) for about 2 weeks. Really appreciate that it’s free / donationware. Everything else is really really expensive and/or a subscription service, which is so absurd and unaffordable for the average user who doesn’t need to transfer files 5-days. Also, thank you x100 for the ability to just copy/paste text between devices. That is so wonderful that it nearly brings a tear to my eye. Great work, thank you !
-- samurai.norg, 2024-12-11

### ***** "Something is off"
Something is off with the current version 1.16.2 on my iOS 13.5. I can import from PC to my device, but I cannot export from my device to PC ... nothing shows up ... nothing works and version 15.x works for me.
-- Master.Reviewer, 2024-12-07

### ****- "Selection"
I like this app which helps a lot transfer files between different systems, if it has a select all button on IOS then would be great！
-- out_sider, 2024-12-04

### ***** "Top Tier"
Obviously Apple would never develop this feature since it lets you transfer files regardless of software ecosystem, but this program really fills the gap and makes transferring across all my devices really easy. Good for photo backups, video file transfer, and more.
-- RealSorcerio, 2024-12-02

### ***-- "File location"
When downloading files it doesn’t let you choose a file location and they get placed into the system files and have no way to access them. Other than that it works great.
-- Parkerp22, 2024-12-02

### *---- "Media button does nothing"
I can’t access the photos on my iPad.
-- Gordon SF, 2024-11-17

### ***** "Issue with Local Files"
Great app but I wanted to point out an annoying problem that’s probably an easy fix. When I receive files the app places them in a “/var/mobile/…” folder. I can copy them to my local Files but they stay in this folder. There seems to be no way to delete them even from iTunes as this is a system folder. Even if you delete their history in the app they stay in that folder (you can see them in iTunes File Sharing). I see no path setting or clear button button of any kind in the app. The only way I’m aware you can delete them is by uninstalling…
-- Gamcrazy, 2024-11-13

### ***** "Good"
just prepared to report bug of sharing from other apps in iOS 18, then I saw v1.16.2 update, so quick. Good job!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
-- covoni, 2024-11-06

### ***** "Nice app"
It's very helpful for my work.
-- 白洁在哪里, 2024-11-06

### ***** "免费且好用"
感谢作者，非常好用。
-- ༊྄ཻᏴ࿆Ꮻ࿆Ꭶ࿆Ꮥ࿆, 2024-11-06

### ***** "Great App"
It's a great app, simple, no-bloat, privacy focused, fast and efficient. Thank you
-- napplz, 2024-11-05

### ***** "Beautifully Simple"
If you ever wanted something like AirDrop to go from your PC to an Apple device, this is it. Kudos to the developer(s) for making something so simple and functional.
-- jekejfkdmms, 2024-11-04

### ***** "This is the app you’ve been looking for"
If you’re constantly struggling to share big files between devices on your own network, this is the app. I’ve setup file sharing, workgroups, FTP servers, but they all have limits and all seem to break. This little app is rock solid and has a great UI.
-- alaskanpostcard, 2024-10-29

### ***** "Fire but NEEDS a multi-selection"
This is the only consistent thing I can use on Windows to transfer files easily. it just NEEDS a multi-selection option so that I dont have to individually send each file.
-- DarkKnightDomo, 2024-10-28

### ***** "Perfect"
Perfect!
-- Jhkestrrqx22, 2024-10-23

### ***** "Exactly what I needed instead of Airdrop"
Multi-platform on multiple devices.

I love it so much.
-- Tom_T_T, 2024-10-14
