WiFi File
Server
Share files from your phone over Wi-Fi.
Turn your phone into a small private file server. Anyone on your Wi-Fi can browse and download files from your phone using just a web browser. No cloud, no account, no tracking.

How it works
Four steps, no signup. No accounts to make, no apps to install on the receiving device.
01
Pick a folder
Choose any folder on your device. Only that folder is exposed.
02
Tap Start
A QR code and local URL appear on the home screen.
03
Scan or open
Any phone, tablet, or laptop on the same Wi-Fi opens the URL.
04
Browse & download
It looks like a normal file listing in your browser. Stop the server when you're done.
Features
Built for the LAN, not the cloud. Everything you need to move files between devices on your network — and nothing you don't.
Any browser, any device
No app install on the receiving side. Works on phones, laptops, tablets, smart TVs — anything that opens a URL.
QR code on the home screen
Connect another device by pointing its camera at the phone. No typing IPs.
Resumable downloads
HTTP range requests are supported, so paused or interrupted downloads pick up where they left off.
Folder upload
Pick a whole folder tree from a computer; the structure is preserved on the phone.
Multi-select
Pick several files at once, then bulk-download as a ZIP or bulk-delete.
Optional password
Basic auth available when you want a quick gate between you and the rest of the network.
Auto-stop on idle
Set the server to shut itself off after a configurable idle window. Forget to stop it; the app remembers for you.
Drop-box mode
Hide the file listing entirely and accept only uploads — useful when others need to drop files to you.
Home-screen widget
Start or stop the server with a single tap, without opening the app.
Privacy
Your files don't go anywhere.
No cloud. No account. No telemetry. The server runs on your phone and serves files over your local Wi-Fi. Files never traverse the public internet. The app has no analytics SDKs, no third-party services, and doesn't phone home.
- All data stays on your device or your local network.
- Optional credentials are stored locally only.
- Transfer history persists across app restarts — on-device only.
- No third-party SDKs, ads, or analytics.
- Source is on GitHub — read it yourself.
