Before you install.

Will it work on my devices?

You’ll need an Apple silicon Mac running macOS 14 or later. Mac-to-Android sends use Quick Share on your Android phone. Phone-to-Mac QR uploads work in a browser. Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi.

My phone can’t find my Mac.

Allow Local Network access for Pidge on your Mac. Guest Wi-Fi often keeps devices apart. Connect both devices to the main network and scan a fresh code.

Where do my files go?

Files travel between your devices on your Wi-Fi. Only your license key is checked online, and that check never sees file names or contents. An activated Mac can work offline for up to seven days after a successful check.

Who can send or receive?

Choose quick sharing on Wi-Fi you trust. Nearby phones can receive the files selected for an open send QR and send to an open Receive window. Closing the window stops unfinished automatic transfers. Choose Ask each time in Settings to compare Quick Share codes. Browser uploads use a temporary local HTTP link and should only be used on trusted Wi-Fi.

How do I update?

In Pidge 1.1.2 or later, choose Pidge → Check for Updates. Finish sharing, then choose Install and Relaunch. If you tested 1.1.1 or earlier, quit Pidge, download the 1.1.2 test update, unzip it, and replace Pidge in Applications once. Your settings and saved license stay on your Mac.

Transcript

An illustrated Mac sends a photo and a PDF. A phone scans the QR, opens Quick Share and receives the files in Downloads. Narration: “Meet Pidge. Drop your files in… and hit Send. Point your Android’s camera at the code, and tap the Quick Share link. Boom. Your phone connects on its own, and the files land right in Downloads. Pidge. Scan… and it’s there.”
