What is ShareIt?
1 uses a direct Wi‑Fi connection to link your devices and transfer data—no cables, internet, or cloud required. You can add up to five devices to a shared session, making it ideal for both home and office use.
Install ShareIt on all the devices you want to share between, and with just a few clicks you can send everything from photos and music to entire folders. You can skip USB drives, Bluetooth, and slow email transfers entirely.
ShareIt is especially popular for fast file transfer without the internet, where you can, for example, share files between PC and mobile, even if they’re on different platforms like Android, Windows or iOS. That makes the app perfect for wireless data transfer between devices, for instance when you want to send large files without cables, or move videos and apps between phones.
Because ShareIt is free, fast, and easy to use, it’s one of the 1 tools for Wi‑Fi file transfer for iOS and Android, and many use it as an alternative to both AirDrop and Google Nearby Share—especially when platforms are mixed or when you need more flexibility.
