SNAREit

SNAREit is a cross-platform file transfer and content management application associated with the SHAREit family of products. It is developed by Smart Media4U Technology Co., Ltd and is designed to enable quick wireless sharing of media and documents between devices, typically through a direct local network connection such as Wi‑Fi Direct or a mobile hotspot. In addition to transfer, SNAREit provides features for cloud backup and synchronization, allowing users to store and access content across devices.

Core features include fast device-to-device transfers, support for a wide range of file types (photos, videos, music, documents), a built-in media player and file manager, and optional cloud storage. The app emphasizes ease of use and is designed for smartphones, tablets, and PCs, with desktop clients available for Windows and macOS in some releases. It supports multiple platforms, including Android and iOS, and can sometimes be accessed via web or companion apps depending on the version.

SNAREit operates within the broader SHAREit ecosystem and has been marketed as a companion or alternative to SHAREit’s transfer features. As with other file-sharing apps, it requires certain device permissions to access files, network settings, and storage. The project has seen updates to address compatibility with newer operating systems and to broaden platform support.
