Does Secreto Hub require Internet?
No Internet connection is required for a local transfer. The sending device and television must be connected to the same local network.
Do I need an application on my phone?
No companion mobile application is required. Use a modern browser on the same local network.
Does it work with iPhone?
It can work from a modern browser on an iPhone connected to the same local network as the television. Browser and network configuration can affect compatibility.
Does it work with Android phones?
It can work from a modern browser on an Android phone connected to the same local network. No companion application is required.
Does it work from a computer?
Yes, a modern browser on a computer can open the local receiver address when the computer and television are on the same network.
Are files uploaded to the cloud?
No. Files are transferred over the local network and are not routed through SecretoTools-operated cloud file storage. File data is encrypted in the browser before transmission.
Does it require an account?
No Secreto Hub account or registration is required for the local transfer workflow.
Are files encrypted during transfer?
Yes. File metadata and contents are encrypted in the sender browser with AES-256-GCM before transmission and decrypted locally by Secreto Hub on the television.
What is the pairing code?
It represents a random 128-bit secret generated for the active receiver session and is used to establish authenticated transfer keys.
Does the pairing information stay the same?
No. New random pairing information is generated for each receiving session. A running session expires after 12 hours and ends sooner when the receiver stops.
Is the receiver address HTTPS?
No. The television serves the local page over HTTP. File metadata and contents are protected separately with authenticated application-layer encryption.
Can I send multiple files at once?
Yes. Secreto Hub supports multi-file batches.
What happens if one file fails?
The remaining files can continue. Secreto Hub shows failed files and their failure reason so you can retry the failed files only.
Does retry use the secure transfer?
Yes. Retried files use the same authenticated encrypted transfer workflow.
Are received files opened automatically?
No. Received files are not opened or executed automatically.
What file types are supported?
Secreto Hub accepts arbitrary non-empty files. Browser, Android, available storage, and device policies can still affect an individual transfer or whether another app can open the received file.
How are files transferred?
File metadata and contents are encrypted in the sender browser with AES-256-GCM and sent in authenticated 256 KiB chunks. Results still depend on available storage, the devices, router, and local network conditions.
Where are files saved?
Completed files are decrypted and saved locally on the television in Download/SecretoHub and appear in History.
What Android versions are supported?
The application is configured for Android TV 8.0/API 26 and later. Android 8 and 9 require storage permission; Android 17/API 37 and later require local-network permission.
How do I delete received data?
Delete completed files with Android storage tools. Version 1.0 does not delete individual History records; clear Secreto Hub's app data or uninstall it to remove its private History database.
Does it support Google TV?
The interface is designed for Android TV and Google TV. Compatibility can vary by manufacturer, Android version, storage, browser, and network configuration.
Why can my browser not connect?
Confirm that the receiver is running and that the browser device and television are on the same local network. Guest Wi-Fi, VPN routing, or client isolation can prevent local connections.
Is Secreto Hub free?
Store availability and pricing are communicated through official SecretoTools release channels.
Is the source code public?
The public availability of the source code has not been announced.
