Send Files Directly — P2P File Transfer & LAN Share
Airclippy Quick Share lets you send files directly from one device to another without uploading to the cloud. Using peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, your files travel directly between devices over your local area network (LAN) — making it one of the fastest ways to transfer files between a phone and a computer, or between two laptops on the same WiFi.
What is P2P File Sharing?
Peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing creates a direct connection between two devices. Unlike traditional file sharing where you upload a file to a server and the other person downloads it, P2P transfer sends data straight from sender to receiver. This means faster speeds, better privacy, and no dependency on cloud storage limits.
Why Use Quick Share for LAN Transfer?
- Speed: Files transfer at your local network speed, often 10–100× faster than cloud-based sharing.
- Privacy: Your data never leaves your network. No third-party server ever sees your files.
- No size limits: The P2P connection has no file size cap — send large videos, archives, or project folders freely.
- Cross-platform: Works in any modern browser. Send files between Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android.
- Free: No subscription, no premium tier for large files. Quick Share is completely free.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Quick Share the same as AirDrop or Nearby Share?
Similar concept — direct device-to-device file transfer. But Quick Share works in the browser, so it's cross-platform. No Apple or Google ecosystem lock-in.
Do both devices need to be signed in?
Yes. Both devices need to be signed into an Airclippy account so we can discover them on the network. Signing up is free and takes seconds.
Can I send files to someone on a different network?
Quick Share is designed for same-network (LAN) transfer. For sharing files across the internet, use our cloud file sharing or text sharing features.
Is there a file size limit?
No. The P2P connection itself has no size limit. Transfer large files freely as long as both devices stay connected.
Is it really free?
Yes, completely. No premium tier, no hidden charges. Quick Share is a free feature of Airclippy.
