Send files.
Across your devices.
DropAir connects your devices over the same local network so you can send photos, videos, documents and copied text. Open the website on both devices, pair them, choose your files and select the receiver.
Opening the sharing page… If it does not open automatically, continue to DropAir. File transfers need JavaScript; the guides below can be read without it.
Choose the right workflow
For a few photos or documents, use browser file sharing. For incoming files saved directly into a chosen folder, use desktop Chrome or Edge. For a photo-library backup, start Backup in the iPhone or iPad app and receive on your computer.
- Send iPhone photos to a Windows computer
- Save received files into a folder
- Prepare and resume a photo-library backup
- Troubleshoot a connection
Before you begin
Keep both devices awake with DropAir open. Guest Wi-Fi, VPNs and firewalls can block direct transfers. Internet access is needed to load and pair; file contents are sent directly between devices, without a file-relay fallback.
