Transform your iPhone into a powerful file sharing hub with FlashDrop, the revolutionary app that brings AirDrop-like functionality to any device. Share photos, videos, and documents instantly with anyone nearby - no apps required on their end!

INSTANT CROSS-PLATFORM SHARING
FlashDrop breaks down barriers between devices. Whether your friends use Android, PC, Mac, or any other device, they can instantly receive your files by simply scanning a QR code. No app downloads, no account creation, no complicated setup - just pure, frictionless sharing.

HOW IT WORKS
Select Your Media: Choose photos and videos from your library (up to 50 files)
Start Sharing: Tap "Start Sharing" to create a secure session
Show QR Code: Display the generated QR code to your recipient
Instant Download: They scan with any camera app and download directly to their device
Auto Cleanup: Sessions expire automatically after 5 minutes for security

PRIVACY & SECURITY FIRST
Your files never leave your local network. FlashDrop creates a secure, temporary connection between devices using your existing Wi-Fi or Personal Hotspot. No cloud storage, no external servers, no data collection - just direct, private transfers between devices.

LIGHTNING FAST TRANSFERS
Built-in file optimization and compression ensure your photos and videos transfer at maximum speed. The local HTTP server bypasses internet bottlenecks, delivering files directly between devices for the fastest possible transfer rates.
