AirDrop only exists on Apple devices — try sending pics to an Android friend and you're stuck. Transient Files gives you a private link instead: open it on any phone or computer, get the originals, done. No app, no account, up to 1GB.
Share without AirDropDrag them in or pick from your phone. Any format, up to 1GB — no compression, ever.
Copy it into any chat, or show the QR code and let the other person scan it.
iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac — the link opens in any browser and the files download in original quality. Then the link deletes itself.
iPhone to Android, Android to iPhone, phone to laptop — every combination works, because it's just a link.
Neither side installs anything or signs up. If they have a browser, they can receive your files.
No compression, no re-encoding, no watermark. Photos arrive exactly as you took them.
The link expires after 1 hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, or one download — then everything is deleted.
For cross-device sharing, a private expiring link is the simplest option. Transient Files works between iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac — no app, no account, original quality, up to 1GB per transfer.
No — AirDrop only works between Apple devices. With Transient Files you upload once and share a link the Android side opens in their browser, so the result feels the same.
Apple hasn't built one. A browser-based link like Transient Files covers the same job across platforms, plus extras AirDrop doesn't have: QR codes, expiry timers, and one-time downloads.
No. There is no app at all. You upload in your browser, they open the link in theirs — that's the whole exchange.
No pairing, no proximity requirement, and no size anxiety: up to 1GB per file, and the recipient can be in another city. The link also auto-deletes, which Bluetooth transfers never do.
Yes — completely free, no ads, no sign-up, no watermark.
