    Send files between devices

    Phone to computer and back in one tap: scan a QR code and files go directly between the devices, never through a server.

    How it works

    1. 1

      Create a room

      Press the button on the first device and a QR code appears.

    2. 2

      Scan it

      Open the link on the other device by scanning the code or entering it.

    3. 3

      Send files

      Drop files on either device; they arrive directly.

    Questions and answers

    Do my files go through your server?

    No. The server only relays the connection details for a few seconds. The files travel directly between the devices and are encrypted.

    Why does it not connect?

    Devices on different networks may need a STUN server, which the site owner can enable. On the same Wi-Fi it works without it.

    Is there a size limit?

    2 GB per file. The receiving device keeps the file in memory until you save it.

    How do I know nobody is eavesdropping?

    Compare the six digits shown on both screens. If they match, the connection is secure.
