Snapdrop is an open‑source Progressive Web App that enables local file sharing between devices using WebRTC and WebSockets. It can be run in any modern browser or self‑hosted via Docker.
Use cases
- share files between devices on the same network
- transfer documents locally without internet access
- send photos from phone to laptop instantly
- quickly move files between computers in a LAN
- use a web browser to exchange files securely
- host a private file‑sharing service with Docker
When to choose
- you need a simple, cross‑platform solution that works directly in the browser
- you prefer an open‑source, self‑hostable tool you can run on your own infrastructure
- you want instant peer‑to‑peer file transfer without installing native apps
When to avoid
- you require transfer of extremely large files beyond typical browser limits
- you need enterprise‑grade security certifications or compliance
- you want offline file transfer without any network connectivity
- you need a dedicated mobile app distributed through app stores
