LocalNAS: Turn Phone to NAS App-Analysen für 10. November

LocalNAS turns your Android phone into a NAS server for home file sharing. Give a spare phone a new purpose: use its storage as a local network drive for photos, videos, documents, and other files. Connect your own devices over the same Wi-Fi network to browse, upload, download, and manage shared folders without a cloud account or an internet connection. YOUR SPARE PHONE, YOUR LOCAL STORAGE NAS means network-attached storage. LocalNAS makes selected folders on your Android phone available to devices on your local network while the server is running. The phone stores the files and acts as the host; your other devices connect to access the folders you choose to share. Use it as a home file server, a shared document folder, a place to transfer photos, or a destination for scheduled one-way folder backups. LocalNAS uses the storage available on the host phone; it does not add storage capacity. For example, keep a spare Android phone at home as a shared storage device, send documents to it from your laptop, and retrieve those files from another phone. You control which folders are available to connected devices. CONNECT PHONES, COMPUTERS, AND COMPATIBLE TVs Share files mobile-to-mobile or access your host from a Windows PC, Mac, or another device with a compatible web browser. Open the host's local browser drive using its address on the same network. TVs with a compatible browser and local network access can also open the browser drive. Access depends on your device's browser and network settings. LocalNAS provides access through the app or its local browser drive; this does not mean every TV or built-in network-drive feature is supported. FILE SHARING AND MANAGEMENT Choose the folders your Android NAS server shares. Find a host on the local network, scan its QR code, or enter its address manually. Use an optional 6-digit PIN for pairing. Browse shared folders in list or grid view. Search within the current folder and sort its contents. Preview images and PDF documents. Upload one file, multiple files, or an entire folder. Download files to the connected device. Create folders, rename items, and delete files where access allows. Scan or import a document and upload it to a shared folder. Follow transfer progress and reconnect to saved hosts when available. ONE-WAY WI-FI BACKUP Schedule a backup of a chosen folder to a paired host. Files move from the source folder to the host; this is not two-way synchronization. Both devices must be on the same local network, and the host must be running and reachable when the backup takes place. HOW TO GET STARTED Install LocalNAS on the Android phone you want to use as your storage host. Select the folders to share and start the server. Connect your other device to the same Wi-Fi network. Find the host, scan its QR code, or open its local address in a compatible browser. Enter the PIN when required, then browse and transfer files. DESIGNED FOR TRUSTED LOCAL NETWORKS LocalNAS is a local file transfer and storage tool, not a public internet hosting service. No account or internet connection is required for local transfers. Keep the host running while other devices need access. Share only the folders you intend to make available and connect only devices and networks you trust. RESPONSIBLE USE AND DISCLAIMER You are responsible for your decision to download, install, and use LocalNAS and for the files you access, upload, download, share, modify, or delete. Use the app only with devices, networks, and content you own or have permission to access. You are solely responsible for unlawful or unauthorized misuse you carry out, including accessing files without permission, sharing copyrighted content without authorization, or infringing another person's privacy. Keep backups of important files and review shared-folder access before connecting devices. This notice does not remove developer obligations or limit user rights under applicable law.
