DropDuo
Download

Mac to Android. Android to Mac.

Files, folders, photos, links and text, straight across your local network. Pair once. No account, no cloud.

Download How it works

A silent demo. A phone scans the Mac's pairing code and the Mac approves it. A photo dragged onto the Mac lands on the phone, verified. A folder right-clicked in Finder and sent with DropDuo arrives on the phone as a folder. A link shared on Android arrives on the Mac. Transfers stay on the local network, encrypted, with no account.

Built for the things you actually send.

  1. Android to Mac

    The photo you just took.

    Share it from Photos or any other app. It lands on your Mac as the original file, not a compressed copy.

  2. Mac to Android

    The PDF you need on your phone.

    Right-click it in Finder and choose Send with DropDuo, or drag it onto the app. Your phone has it a moment later.

  3. Android to Mac

    The long video, even when Wi-Fi drops.

    Retry an interrupted transfer and it continues from where it stopped. Files appear only after an integrity check.

  4. Mac to Android

    The whole folder, still a folder.

    Send a folder from your Mac and it lands in your phone's Downloads with every subfolder and file inside.

Pair once. Stay paired.

Three steps, done once. After that, both devices remember each other and reconnect on their own.

  1. Open DropDuo on your Mac

    Choose Pair a device. A short-lived QR code appears.

  2. Scan it with your phone

    Both devices need to be on the same network. No codes to type, no account to create.

  3. Approve it on your Mac

    Nothing is trusted until you say so. You can unpair a device whenever you like.

Nothing in between.

Your Mac and Android phone connect directly over your local network through an encrypted link. No cloud or relay server sits in between. No cloud. No relay. Your network only
  • Encrypted with a separate key each way
  • You approve every new device
  • No account, ads or analytics
Open source. Read the code

Install both. Pair once.
