User Reviews

LocalSend excels as a cross-platform LAN file transfer tool with fast transfers, metadata preservation, and an ad-free experience. It’s very convenient for moving files between iPhone, Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android, and supports clipboard sharing. Most reviews praise its reliability and speed, plus offline operation on a local network. However, users frequently report network discovery issues on local networks, unclear permission prompts, and media selection limitations, along with occasional transfer bugs that require a restart. Overall, strong cross-platform sharing with some caveats.

Pros

Cross-platform compatibility across iPhone, Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android.
Fast transfers that preserve metadata and use clear device naming.
Ad-free, no subscriptions, and generally reliable.
Works over local network without Internet (LAN) and can use Bluetooth when needed.
Clipboard/file sharing between iPhone and Windows adds convenient cross-device copy-paste.

Cons

Network discovery and device visibility on the local network is inconsistent, with devices not seeing each other across OS.
Permission prompts are unclear or misleading (which permissions to grant for folders/files).
Media selection lacks bulk options (no select all; difficult to select many; per-photo selection).
Occasional transfer bugs require restarting the app to receive more files.
