About this app

Tired of USB cables, cloud uploads, and apps you're not even allowed to install on a work computer?

LocalBridge turns your Android phone into a local web server. Any device with a web browser — Mac, Windows PC, Linux, a tablet, even another phone — can connect instantly. No software to install, no account, no internet required. Everything happens on your own WiFi network, nothing ever touches the cloud.

WHY LOCALBRIDGE?

✔ Works with any device, any OS
If it has a browser — Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge — it can connect. Mac, Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, tablets, it doesn't matter.

✔ Nothing to install on the other side
Just scan a QR code or type a local address. That's it. No app, no drivers, no setup.

✔ 100% local, 100% private
Files from your shared folder travel directly between your phone and the other device over your WiFi network. No servers, no accounts, no data collection.

✔ Works on managed / corporate computers
Since it's just a web page opened locally, IT-managed machines with restricted app installs are no problem.

✔ Fast and simple
Scan the QR code, approve the connection from your phone, and start sending files in seconds.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Open LocalBridge on your Android phone and start server
2. A local web address and QR code appear instantly
3. Scan it (or type it) in a browser on any other device
4. A connection request pops up on your phone — accept it to allow the transfer
5. Drag & drop files onto the page to send them to your phone, or download files from your phone to the other device

SECURITY

You stay in control of every connection. When a device tries to connect, you get a request on your Android phone and choose to accept it, block it, or whitelist it for automatic access next time. Temporary access expires automatically after a duration you set, and you can revoke any access — temporary or whitelisted — at any time. For extra peace of mind, Max Security mode keeps the server running only while the app is in the foreground, and shuts everything down the moment you leave it. No codes to type or share — just a tap to approve.
Of course, you select which folder is shared, not all the device.

FREE VERSION

Unlimited transfers, up to 25 MB per file — perfect for photos, documents, and most everyday files.

PREMIUM (one-time purchase, no subscription)

Unlock unlimited file size, once and for all — plus easy mDNS access (connect with a simple name, no more typing IP addresses) and the ability to choose a custom upload destination. No subscription, no recurring fees, no account needed.

WHO IS IT FOR?

- Android power users who need to move files to a computer quickly, whatever the OS
- Freelancers and professionals using a company-managed computer
- Anyone who wants a fast, cable-free, cloud-free alternative to Android File Transfer (discontinued in 2024)

Note: LocalBridge requires both devices to be on the same local WiFi network. It may not work on heavily segmented corporate networks (VLANs) or behind certain security proxies.

Simple. Local. Private. Any device. LocalBridge.
