Tech Tools / Direct File Transfer
Direct File Transfer
Send a file or folder from one browser to another with a short session code. The data goes directly between your devices — not through our servers. Both tabs have to stay open until the transfer finishes.
Before you start
This checklist is here so a failed transfer is clearly a browser or network limit, not a broken tool.
Network pre-check
Checking whether this device can be reached on a public address…
Use 3–24 letters, numbers, or hyphens. Spaces become hyphens. Leave blank to get a random code.
Drop files or a folder here
Or choose them below. Folder structure is kept when the browser provides relative paths.
Optional: if you have hundreds of tiny files, or the other person is on a browser that cannot save into a folder, zipping first can be smoother. You can still send the files as they are.
Waiting for the other person
Keep this tab open and this computer awake until the transfer finishes.

Transfer complete
Use at your own risk. Files travel device-to-device over an encrypted connection and are not stored on our servers. A short session code is only used to introduce the two browsers. Both tabs must stay open for the whole transfer. Some corporate, hotel, or cellular networks block direct connections; the checklist and connection test are meant to show that before you start. This is not a backup service. Confirm the integrity check at the end, and treat received files with the same caution you would for any file from another person.
