Very practical app! Local Send works great for transferring files between my computer and phone wirelessly. No cables needed, fast and simple. Highly recommended!

Absolutely the best app for PC to Android file transfer. I have no idea how I didn't know about this. It is so clean and efficient that it's basically a no-brainer if you want something to transfer files between your pc and android. Perfect.

Free, simple and efficient. I was able to send music and files from my laptop to my phone easily over local Wi-Fi, you just install this on the sending and receiving devices, and then you're sorted. The interface is pretty easy to work out - click send on the sending machine and choose the files out folder you want to send and click the alias for the recipient device. On the receiving device go to the reception tab - it's off by default, so just press on and accept the transferred files. Easy

This was great app, even I recommended to my friends, but 2-3months ago the App is being unusable, it crashes when you select folder to share, now it is also not sending files and says you haven't granted permission 😕, which I already granted, please fix the Android app of Local Send

The not working at all to send files not in OS, not in android nor in PC why?????
★☆☆☆☆Amal Mohan· Jun 9, 2026
It was working fine earlier. But now as soon as I send something to my phone from my PC, the pc shows the transferring progress bar and the phone shows the dialog to open the file. The transfer eventually shows as failed on the pc.
