Feem

Feem is an offline file transfer application that sends files directly between your devices over a shared Wi-Fi network or Wi-Fi Direct, without the cloud, and works on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

Features:

• Offline file transfers using Wi-Fi Direct, a hotspot or a local network
• Developer claims 50x faster than Bluetooth, 2x faster than cloud services such as Dropbox
• Large file size capability that does not affect your monthly online data bandwidth
• TLS encryption on transfers to ensure secure transfers.
• Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

Feem is a good alternative to cloud services like Dropbox because it needs no internet connection and sends files directly at local network speed.

Feem is a file transfer application for use anywhere your devices are. It suits home, school or business use. You can use either your local area network, or the Wi-Fi Direct feature to securely transfer files from one device to another. Transfers do not require an internet connection like competing services (Dropbox or OneDrive), as they are performed directly using Wi-Fi Direct or your local network, so the files never leave your own network. According to the developer, transfers are up to 50 times faster than Bluetooth and about twice as fast as an online transfer.

Feem is designed for offline file transfer. Devices running Feem discover each other automatically and appear under friendly names assigned by the app, so you simply pick files, pick a device and send. Transfers are protected with TLS 1.3 encryption, can be resumed after an interruption, and run in both directions at once (full duplex), even with several devices. A built-in chat lets you exchange messages with the other devices on the network.

Feem is available for Windows 10 and 11, macOS, Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora), Android and iOS, through the Microsoft Store, the Mac App Store, the Snap Store, Google Play and the App Store. The Windows version also includes Feem WebShare, which shares selected files through a local web address protected by a password, so they can be opened in a browser. The basic app is free; an optional Feem PRO upgrade unlocks more features and removes ads.

Feem is a simple and free way of transferring pictures, documents, music and other files from one device to another on the same network or over Wi-Fi Direct.
