Driftbox

Wi-Fi File Transfer & Browser

Only for iPhone

Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.

iPhone

Move files between your iPhone and a computer or phone, directly over Wi-Fi. No cloud. No accounts. Your iPhone holds photos, documents, and half-finished projects that need to move. Driftbox moves them without cloud detours or sign-up forms. Open the Files tab to browse what’s already on your phone. Search by name, tag what matters, and favorite the files you use every day. Preview images, text, CSV files, and PDFs in place. Zip a folder before sending it, or unzip one as soon as it arrives. Import files from Photos, the Files app, or a direct link. None of this requires a connection. Switch to airplane mode and keep working. Need a second device? Tap Launch on the Home tab. A local address, QR code, and six-digit PIN appear. Open that address in a laptop browser, enter the PIN, and transfer files across your own Wi-Fi network. No uploads, no third-party servers. Want Finder on your Mac to see your iPhone directly? Select Connect to Server, add /dav/ to the address, and use the PIN as your password. Sending something to a friend nearby? Choose the file, choose their phone, and let them accept or decline. The transfer runs over a direct connection, with a checksum confirming that it arrived intact. Every session requires that PIN. Five incorrect guesses lock a visitor out for one minute. The server turns itself off when Wi-Fi drops or no one is active. A log keeps track of what happened. Driftbox is a transfer tool first. Your files stay on your devices, on your network, under your control.
