PairDrop Description

PairDrop for Android is an Android™ client for the free and open source local file sharing solutions https://pairdrop.net/.

Do you also sometimes have the problem that you just need to quickly transfer a file from your phone to the PC?

USB? - Old fashioned!
Bluetooth? - Much too cumbersome and slow!
E-mail? - Please not another email I write to myself!

PairDrop!

PairDrop is a local file sharing solution which completely works in your browser. A bit like Apple's Airdrop, but not only for Apple devices. Windows, Linux, Android, IPhone, Mac - no problem at all!

However, even if it theoretically would fully work in your browser, you will love this app if you want to use PairDrop more often in your daily life. Thanks to perfect integration into the Android operating system, files are sent even faster. Directly from within other apps you can select PairDrop to share with.

Thanks to its radical simplicity, "PairDrop for Android" makes the everyday life of hundreds of users easier. As an open source project we don't have any commercial interests but want to make the world a little bit better. Join and convince yourself!

PRIVACY:
This app interacts with https://pairdrop.net/ to be able to discover other devices running PairDrop in your local network. However, none of your files is ever sent to any server but are transferred directly peer-to-peer between your devices.

What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the PairDrop I downloaded is an XAPK file?

Open up

A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation. The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process. XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application. On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/. But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.

Can I play PairDrop on my computer?

Yes, you can play PairDrop on your computer by installing LDPlayer, an Android emulator. After installing LDPlayer, simply drag and drop the downloaded APK file into the emulator to start playing PairDrop on PC.
