About File tools
Move a document or a note between a phone and a computer without creating an account or uploading it to a cloud inbox. These file tools connect your browsers directly: you choose the content, pair the devices, and accept each incoming transfer.
For local transfers, keep both devices on the same Wi-Fi and leave their pages open. Manual connection codes avoid a discovery server. Your router and browser must allow devices to reach each other; guest networks that isolate devices can block transfers.
Frequently asked questions
Do files go through a cloud server?
No. The transfer tool sends content directly to the browser you pair with. You exchange connection codes manually, and the receiving device must accept each item.
Can a guest Wi-Fi network block transfer?
Yes. Networks with client isolation prevent devices from reaching each other. Use a trusted network that allows local connections and keep both pages active.
