ShareFi is an open-source program for Windows designed to simplify file and folder sharing across devices connected to the same local network. Just like in LocalSend, no internet is necessary here to complete transfers.
Discovery
Once launched, it is possible to instantly detect other devices running the same app on the network, eliminating manual IP entry or configuration. Users can share files or entire folders with a few clicks. It is easy to just add an item, assign an optional tag for retrieval, and let the tool handle the rest.
Since everything operates within your local WiFi, speeds are fast and dependable, outperforming Bluetooth and cloud-based transfers. The utility avoids crafting any user profiles or gathering personal data. It simply works within your network and keeps file transfers private.
Efficient
There is a clean, dashboard-style interface with clear tabs for connected desktops, phones and tablets, active shares and downloads. The UI is available in various popular languages and the list is updated regularly. On top of that, you are able to set a portable edition which does not require installation nor leaves any traces of your activities. The latter is useful when transferring data between multiple computers.
