KEIBIDROP connects two computers. Install it on both, then connect them once. Your own second computer counts: laptop and desktop, or laptop and NAS. Free and open source, no account.

Mac

Open the downloaded file, drag KEIBIDROP onto Applications, open it from Applications. It is signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without a warning.

Windows

Right-click the zip, Extract All, then open keibidrop.exe. Windows asks once because the app is new to it: More info, then Run anyway.

Linux

Double-click the .deb, press Install, then open KEIBIDROP from your apps. Other distributions and the terminal path: Linux in the docs.

Android

In F-Droid: Settings, Repositories, plus, and add the address below (or scan it). Compare the fingerprint with the one on fdroid.keibisoft.com, then search KEIBIDROP and press Install. Updates arrive like any other app. There is no iPhone app yet.

Their files as a folder

Sending and saving files needs nothing more. To open the other person's files as a folder on your computer, one small driver is installed once, and the app takes you there after your first connection: macFUSE on a Mac (allow it in System Settings, Privacy & Security, restart once), WinFsp on Windows (run the installer, restart once), nothing extra on Linux. Details: Mac, Windows.

Every install also carries keibidrop-cli and kd for scripts and AI agents (automate with kd). A NAS runs the Docker image. Each release publishes a SHA256SUMS file next to the downloads.
