Send photos, videos, documents, music, archives and other files with no account, no cloud storage and no unnecessary steps.

Choose your files, connect to the receiving device and track progress in real time. DirectBeam is built for practical everyday transfers at home, at work or between your own devices.

ANDROID TO ANDROID

• Send and receive files between compatible Android phones and tablets
• Wi‑Fi Direct is used as the primary one-to-one transport when available
• Local network fallback helps maintain compatibility across devices
• No sign-in or DirectBeam account required
• Selected files are not uploaded to a DirectBeam cloud server

ANDROID TO IPHONE, IPAD AND MAC

Transfer files from Android to iPhone, iPad and Mac through a local browser session.

• Open the transfer page in Safari or another browser
• No receiver app required on Apple devices
• Works on the same Wi‑Fi network or through a local DirectBeam hotspot
• Download authorized files directly from your Android device

IPHONE, IPAD, MAC AND BROWSER TO ANDROID

Send files from Apple devices or other browser-enabled devices back to Android.

• Scan the QR code and open the local transfer page
• Choose photos, videos or files from your browser
• Transfer locally without using a cloud upload flow
• Progress is shown live during active transfers

PC CONNECT

Move files between your Android device and a computer through a web browser on the same trusted Wi‑Fi network.

• Upload files from your computer to your phone
• Download authorized files from your phone
• Browse permitted folders
• No desktop program or cable required

PC Connect uses a temporary authenticated local session and should be used only on a trusted private network.

GROUP BEAM

Share selected files with multiple nearby Android receivers. View each connected device separately, monitor individual progress and retry supported transfers without restarting the entire group.

SECURE TRANSPORT V6

Supported Android-to-Android sessions use authenticated AES-256-GCM encryption, ephemeral session keys and file integrity verification. DirectBeam checks completed supported transfers to help detect damaged or altered data.

RELIABLE TRANSFERS

• Live progress, speed and remaining-time information
• Support for multiple files and large files
• Resume support for compatible interrupted transfers
• SHA-256 integrity verification
• File names, file contents and available metadata are preserved where supported by Android and the selected storage provider
• Foreground transfer service helps active transfers continue when the app leaves the screen

BUILT FOR CONTROL

You choose the files, folders and devices involved in every transfer. DirectBeam uses Android system permissions and file pickers so you can authorize access only where needed.

WHY DIRECTBEAM?

• Android-to-Android file sharing
• Android-to-iPhone and iPhone-to-Android transfer
• Phone-to-PC and PC-to-phone transfer
• Local transfer without DirectBeam cloud storage
• No account required
• Group sharing to multiple receivers
• Clear transfer history and diagnostics
• Modern, focused interface

The free version may display ads. Optional DirectBeam Pro features are available through Google Play Billing. Available functions can vary by Android version, device hardware, permissions and network configuration.

Important: Secure Transport V6 applies to supported Android-to-Android sessions. It does not apply to the local HTTP browser connection used by PC Connect or Apple/browser transfer sessions.
