Local File Sharing App
Share one folder across your devices — over Wi-Fi, not the cloud
LoopStream is a local-first file sharing app. You pick one folder, start a host, and every device on the same Wi-Fi can browse and transfer files from it — directly, device to device, with no cloud upload and no account required.
How local sharing works
- Pick one folder on your Mac, PC, or phone to share.
- Start the host — a local address, PIN, and QR code appear instantly.
- Other devices on the Wi-Fi pair with the PIN or by scanning the QR.
- Browse, download, and upload within that one folder — nothing else is reachable.
Why choose local-first sharing
- No cloud upload for local transfers — files move directly between your devices.
- No account required for local Wi-Fi sharing.
- Selected-folder access keeps the rest of your disk private.
- Works across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch — Windows, Linux, and Android coming soon.
Need to reach the same folder when you are away from the network? LoopStream Pro adds encrypted remote access through a relay where supported, while local sharing always stays free.
Frequently asked questions
What is a local file sharing app?
A local file sharing app moves files directly between your own devices on the same network instead of uploading them to a cloud service. LoopStream does this over Wi-Fi, so files stay on your devices.
Do I need an account to share files locally?
No. Local Wi-Fi sharing in LoopStream works with no account and no sign-up.
Is there a size limit for local transfers?
Local transfers run at your Wi-Fi speed with no artificial cloud caps. Practical limits depend on your network and device storage.
