Fast handoffs between your own devices
Express Share keeps file transfers on your network so you stay in control. Nothing to install, nothing long-lived on a server.
-
Local by design
Transfers stay inside your network whenever peers can reach each other directly.
-
Frictionless handoff
Paste, drop, or type. Share while staying focused on the work in front of you.
-
Clear expiration
Shared items disappear automatically after a short window, keeping things tidy.
Built for private, everyday sharing
Express Share exists for moments when you just need to move something from one screen to another without the overhead of accounts, uploads, or external drives.
It respects the boundaries of your network, embraces open web standards, and gives you a predictable way to pass files or notes without extra ceremony.
What this means for you
- LAN-first routing with WebRTC fallbacks when peers connect directly.
- Install once as a PWA and keep working even when the connection flickers.
- Ephemeral metadata — everything expires on its own, no cleanup needed.
- Self-host friendly so teams can run it entirely within their environment.
Privacy by design
Express Share keeps the footprint small: signaling only, no persistent storage, and simple configuration if you want to self-host over LAN.
- WebRTC data channels handle file bytes with end-to-end encryption.
- Metadata stores for minutes, then clears automatically.
- Open source stack so you can audit or adapt it to your workflow.
