✦ Features
Everything you need for independence
Not just photo sync. LocalCloud copies everything - from contacts to encrypted backup - where you are in control.
Full backup like iMazing
iTunes‑compatible MobileBackup2 - AES‑256 encryption, full device data including SMS, WhatsApp, Wi‑Fi profiles. Partial restore by category.
Sync from anywhere
At home - direct Wi‑Fi. On the road - encrypted relay through our server. Your Mac receives data in real time without open ports or VPN.
USB ~5× faster than Wi‑Fi
Plug in your iPhone - sync starts automatically after a few seconds. ~128 GB in minutes instead of 40+ over Wi‑Fi.
Finder like iCloud Drive
A LocalCloud folder appears in the Finder sidebar. Spotlight finds photos by date and location. Quick Look for HEIC without conversion.
Multiple destinations
3‑2‑1 strategy: on your Mac + SFTP to your server + Google Drive / Yandex / Backblaze. All work in parallel.
Mac Backup
Hourly snapshots of Documents, Desktop, Pictures - Time Machine‑style with SFTP and cloud targets. Hard‑link dedup saves space.
Security
TLS 1.3 everywhere. Relay does not read or store your payload - it only forwards bytes. Backups are encrypted before any destination.
Telegram Bot
Notifications after each sync. Remote /sync and /backup. Pay with Telegram Stars outside the App Store. Support in the bot.
☁️ Destinations
Your data - where you trust it
Connect any storage or several at once. LocalCloud encrypts data before it leaves your Mac for external targets.

⚡ How it works
Three steps - then it runs itself
No twenty‑screen wizard. First sync starts within a minute of install.
1
Install on iPhone and Mac
Download LocalCloud from the App Store on iPhone and iPad; the Mac agent from our site. Devices find each other via Bonjour on your Wi‑Fi - no IP typing.
2
Pair in ~10 seconds
A 6‑digit code appears on Mac - enter it on iPhone. Done, paired with TLS. Reconnects are automatic without a code.
3
Choose what to sync
Enable categories: photos, contacts, health, files. Set a schedule. LocalCloud runs on its own - at night when the phone is charging on Wi‑Fi.
Works in Russia without workarounds
LocalCloud detects your region and can use the Russian stack at localclouded.ru when that stack is live. No VPN games - routing follows product policy and applicable law.

On roadmap❓ FAQ
Common questions
Straight answers without marketing fluff.
Is my data stored on your servers?
No. Your Mac is the primary store. Relay only forwards encrypted traffic and cannot read payload contents. If relay disappeared tomorrow, your data remains on your Mac.
Does it work offline on Wi‑Fi only?
Yes - that’s the main path. At home LocalCloud uses direct Wi‑Fi via Bonjour; the internet is not required. Relay is only when phone and Mac are on different networks.
How is this different from iMazing?
iMazing focuses on backup over USB/Wi‑Fi locally. LocalCloud adds encrypted relay, remote destinations, Mac Backup, Telegram Bot, and a Russia‑aware routing story - at a lower planned price.
When will App Store links appear?
As soon as review clears. This site and the Telegram bot will announce first.
Does it work in Russia with blocks?
Product routing follows our geo policy; a dedicated RU stack is on the roadmap. Follow status and release notes for what is live today.
What happens to free access when you charge?
We’ll announce early via Telegram Bot with a 30‑day grace period. Free tier stays for basic Wi‑Fi sync without relay.
Can I restore only WhatsApp or only contacts?
Yes - category‑level restore from iTunes‑compatible backups is a core direction, without wiping the whole phone.
