WiFi File Transfer - IP Messenger ( IPMSG ) is an app which can share messages/files/folders to other IPMSG devices(computers/tablets/smart phones) on the same local(WiFi) network. You no longer need Wires to transfer your music or videos across your devices.

Tutorial - http://coderplus.com/2012/12/ipmsg-for-android/

FEATURES
• Send or receive multiple files/folders to other IP Message Devices on the same WiFi network
• Encrypted Messages(For Gingerbread and Up)
• Detects other IP Message devices on your Wifi Network(Donut and up)
• Supports any kind of Local network including tethered ones.
• Runs as a background service
• Shows File transfer progress in the Notification bar.
• Can transfer files between phones at higher speeds than any BlueTooth transfer.(You just have to create an AdHoc Network on one phone and connect to it from the other)

NOTE
• In order to use this app, your phone and other IP Message devices(Phones,Computers or tablets) need to be on the same local area (or wlan) network.
• IPMSG uses port 2425 for TCP and UDP Communication. If this port is already in use by some other application, then IPMSG would fail.
• Make sure that you have read the IPMSG tutorial(http://coderplus.com/2012/12/ipmsg-for-android/) before you report any issues.

****Important****
If you get Save Failed error, check if the sender's Firewall is blocking the TCP connection.
