Five ways to connect

One nearby network. Five everyday jobs.

Nearbo is being built as one calm place for the things you already do between devices — without uploads, accounts or cables.

File transfer

Send photos, videos and documents straight to a nearby device. Original quality, no cloud detour.

How file transfer works

Cast to TV

Put photos, video or music on the biggest screen in the room. Nearbo TV turns an Android TV box into a receiver.

How casting works

Music everywhere

Play from your phone to nearby speakers and TVs, with playback controls always within reach.

How music works

Phone as remote

Navigate Nearbo TV with a proper directional pad, volume, playback and text input.

How the remote works

AirPods at a glance

See connection and battery status, and switch audio without digging through settings.

How AirPods fit in

Local by design

Your files stay on your network.

Nearbo is designed around a simple rule: nearby devices should talk to each other, not to a server. There is no account, no cloud locker, and no relay in the middle.

  • Device-to-device transfers over your local network
  • No upload to Nearbo servers
  • No advertising or third-party analytics

How it works

Three steps. No pairing codes.

Nearbo uses the network you already have. If your devices can see each other, they can work together.

  1. 01

    Join the same network

    Connect your devices to the same Wi-Fi. No dongles, no cables, no account.

  2. 02

    Open Nearbo

    Nearby devices appear automatically. Nothing to configure.

  3. 03

    Pick a device

    Choose what to send, cast, play or control. Nearbo handles the rest.

Compatibility

Built for the devices you already own.

Nearbo is planned for iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets, Android TV, macOS, Windows and Linux. It is also being designed to work with AirPlay-compatible receivers, where supported.

Compatibility, not certification. Nearbo is an independent project and is not affiliated with Apple or Google.
