Share files between Mac and Android
AirDrop only works between Apple devices. If you have a Mac and an Android phone, you are stuck with cables, email attachments, or uploading to Google Drive and downloading on the other side.
KEIBIDROP works across all platforms. Install it on your Mac and your Android phone. Exchange codes once. The two devices connect directly over an encrypted channel. Share files in either direction.
How to set it up
On macOS, install via Homebrew or download from the install page. On Android, install from Google Play or download the APK from GitHub Releases.
Open KEIBIDROP on both devices. Each shows a code. Copy the code from one device and paste it into the other. The connection establishes. You can save the other device as a contact so next time you connect with one tap.
What you can share
Photos, videos, documents, folders, anything. There is no file size limit. A 10 GB video from your phone goes directly to your Mac without passing through any server. On the same WiFi, the transfer speed depends on your router. Over the internet, it works too. If either device is behind a firewall, a relay forwards the encrypted data.
On the Mac side: virtual folder
On macOS, you can enable the virtual folder mode. Your Android phone's shared files appear as a regular folder in Finder. You can open photos in Preview, play videos in QuickTime, or drag files to your desktop. The files stream from the phone as you access them.
All platforms
KEIBIDROP runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS. Any combination works: Mac to Android, Windows to iPhone, Linux to Android, or any other pairing.
