About:
LANDrop is a cross-platform file sharing application that enables users to send files to nearby devices over a local network without relying on internet services. It uses a secure discovery protocol to find devices and transfers data directly over Wi-Fi, ensuring fast speeds and privacy. This tool eliminates the need for USB drives or cloud uploads for quick, local file distribution.

Key Features:

Zero-configuration local discovery
End-to-end encrypted file transfers
Cross-platform support (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux)
No file size limits or internet required

Use Cases:

Sharing large video or photo projects between a phone and computer
Transferring development builds or logs to local test devices
Sending documents in a secure office environment without cloud access

Alternatives:

LocalSend – Similar open-source, cross-platform functionality with a focus on simplicity.
Snapdrop – Web-based alternative that requires no installation but operates through a browser.
Sharedrop – Web-based tool similar to AirDrop, but requires an internet connection for discovery.
