LocalSend is a free, open-source, cross-platform file sharing tool that allows you to share files to nearby devices. The software has an easy to use interface that enables functionality simply and easily. Transferring files is quick and painless. There are no ads or trackers.

LocalSend is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. There is even a web-based client. I highly recommend this software.

If you scroll down on the first link in the post there is a section that explains how it works.

  1. Install and open
  2. Select files
  3. Tap or click to send

The transfer happens instantly over your local network.
