Zapya and Kuai Ya () are peer-to-peer file sharing apps that allow users to transfer files between mobile devices without the need of an Internet connection. DewMobile, Inc. initially conceived Kuai Ya in Silicon Valley, California, USA to target the Chinese market in 2012. However, the demand for the app spread to neighboring countries such as Myanmar and Pakistan. When the international user base had grown to a reasonable size, DewMobile created a separate app known as Zapya to publish on Apple App Store and Google Play Store. While Kuai Ya and Zapya are similar to each other, they include different APK and features in order to comply with Google Play policies.
Zapya gained popularity in countries with low Internet penetration and poor Internet architecture, because it allows users to share files without relying on an Internet or cellular data connection. The app is available on multiple platforms, including lower-end phone models, so that it is accessible to everyone. Users can transfer files using a transfer method similar to Bluetooth and AirDrop. Some cellphone stores use Zapya's "Phone Replicate" feature to transfer the data from their customers' old phones to their new ones.
