AirBridge
Private Device File Transfers
Free
AirDrop-like transfer with more control: choose where received files and photos are saved.
AirBridge is a fast, secure way to transfer files between your Apple devices over the local network.
Send files directly between iPhone, iPad, and Mac without routing your documents through a remote server. AirBridge is built for nearby transfers with clear device identity, visible transfer progress, and practical controls for trust and transfer history.
Use AirBridge to:
- discover nearby devices on your local network
- send files directly between your Apple devices
- review transfer progress and recent history
- manage trusted devices with clear approval prompts
- retry failed transfers and keep better visibility into what happened
AirBridge is designed for people who want more control and more visibility during local file transfer.
Key features:
- direct device-to-device transfer over the local network
- trust-on-first-use approval flow for safer receiving
- persistent trusted-device storage in the system keychain
- configurable transfer-history retention controls
- retry guidance and clearer transfer state presentation
AirBridge does not require an account and does not use remote storage to move your files between devices.
