## Description

Now in Spanish, Japanese, and Chinese. Drop in any video and play it on your phone, AirPlay it, or stream it over Wi-Fi to any nearby screen — no cloud, no accounts.

DropPlay is the fastest way to watch a video someone just shared with you. AirDrop a file to DropPlay — or open one from another app — and it plays right away. No sign-up, no uploads, no waiting.

PLAY ANYTHING YOU RECEIVE
Open videos shared via AirDrop or handed off from other apps. DropPlay opens files in place, so it won't clutter your storage with copies.

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE
Keep watching in a floating window while you text, browse, or check email. Playback continues even when you leave the app.

CAST TO YOUR TV WITH AIRPLAY
Send any video to an AirPlay-compatible TV or device with a single tap. Your iPhone or iPad becomes the remote.

STREAM OVER YOUR LOCAL NETWORK
Share to another device on the same Wi-Fi by scanning a QR code — no cables, no cloud, no third-party servers. The video streams directly from your device.

PLAYS MORE FORMATS THAN YOU'D EXPECT
Some video containers can't be decoded on iPhone or iPad, but they can still play on a TV or device that supports them. DropPlay knows the difference: when a file can't play locally, casting and local streaming stay available so you're never stuck.
  
BACKGROUND AUDIO
Audio keeps playing when your screen locks or you switch apps, so podcasts, lectures, and music videos don't stop when you do.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
DropPlay doesn't collect your data, require an account, or upload your videos anywhere. Everything happens on your device and your local network.

Just drop a video in and press play.
