Description
PairDrop for Android is an Android™ client for the free and open source local file sharing solutions https://pairdrop.net/.
Do you also sometimes have the problem that you just need to quickly transfer a file from your phone to the PC?
USB? - Old fashioned! Bluetooth? - Much too cumbersome and slow! E-mail? - Please not another email I write to myself!
PairDrop!
PairDrop is a local file sharing solution which completely works in your browser. A bit like Apple's Airdrop, but not only for Apple devices. Windows, Linux, Android, IPhone, Mac - no problem at all!
However, even if it theoretically would fully work in your browser, you will love this app if you want to use PairDrop more often in your daily life. Thanks to perfect integration into the Android operating system, files are sent even faster. Directly from within other apps you can select PairDrop to share with.
Thanks to its radical simplicity, "PairDrop for Android" makes the everyday life of hundreds of users easier. As an open source project we don't have any commercial interests but want to make the world a little bit better. Join and convince yourself!
PRIVACY: This app interacts with https://pairdrop.net/ to be able to discover other devices running PairDrop in your local network. However, none of your files is ever sent to any server but are transferred directly peer-to-peer between your devices.

Recent changes: snapdrop.net support has been removed due to security and privacy concerns after the website was acquired by an untrusted company. The app now exclusively supports PairDrop as a safer alternative.

The servers are very, very unreliable. Don't use this as your primary share app, it will have issues the moment you need to actually use it for something important... Explore other alternatives like Local Send

Snap drop, on its own, used to work great, and I'd have given it 5/5. However, since it changed to 'Pairdrop' it's a 2/5 at best. Since changing, when I transfer multiple files they get put into a .zip file. When I go to move those files from the .zip file to where I want them, it transfers one file then comes up with an error message. This has happened every time since the change. They only way it works now is by way of individual transfer...

Can't detect other devices if file selected for sharing is more than 5
