• No Registration or Installation: Users can start transferring files immediately without creating an account or installing an app.

Security & Privacy

• End-to-End Encryption: All data transferred is encrypted, providing secure communication.

• Privacy-Focused: Eliminates the need for cloud storage and ensures users maintain control over their data.

Advanced Features

• Cross-Platform Support: Works seamlessly with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS devices.

• Pairing: Connect devices remotely by entering a unique code or scanning a QR code.

• Self-Hosting: Users can host their own PairDrop instance for more control over their network.
