OtherDrop – Easy file sharing between your Mac and any device without apps

Summary: OtherDrop enables fast, local network file transfers from Mac to any device using only a browser on the receiver’s end. It supports large files over 100GB with pause and resume capabilities, eliminating the need for app installations or cloud uploads.

What it does

OtherDrop transfers files via a local network by generating a QR code or URL for the receiver to access through a browser. It uses smart chunking to handle large files and allows drag-and-drop transfers with pause and resume support.

Who it's for

It is designed for Mac users needing to send large files quickly to devices running Android, Windows, iOS, or Linux without requiring receiver-side apps.

Why it matters

It solves the problem of slow, app-dependent, or cloud-based file transfers by enabling secure, direct, cross-platform sharing over a local network.
