How it works

1

Upload or snap

Pick a photo, video, or file up to 1GB — or take one on the spot with your camera.

2

Choose how long it lives

1 hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, or one-time download. Your link, your rules.

3

Share the link anywhere

WhatsApp, iMessage, Telegram, Discord — the link just works. No app needed, on any device.

🕑

Disappears on your schedule

Links self-destruct by time or after one download. When it is gone, it is gone — even from our servers.

🔒

No account, no social graph

No friends list, no followers, no profile. Nothing links a file to your identity.

📸

Original quality

No compression. Photos and videos leave your phone exactly as you took them — up to 1GB.

👥

Works for anyone

No Snapchat account needed. Send to friends, family, anyone on any device — even people who have never heard of us.

Frequently asked questions

Is Transient Files a Snapchat replacement?

Not a full one. Snapchat is a chat app with filters, streaks, and a social graph. Transient Files covers the disappearing-moments part: share a photo, video, or file that deletes itself — without an app or account. Use it for the files and moments Snapchat cannot handle.

What makes it more private than Snapchat?

No account means nothing links a file to you. Nothing is public, nothing is indexed by search engines, and files are encrypted at rest. Where Snapchat keeps memories and a social graph, we delete your file by time or after one download — within 36 hours at most.

Does the recipient need Snapchat or an app?

No. The link opens in any browser on any phone or computer, and photos and videos preview inline in WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, and most messaging apps.

Can I send bigger files than Snapchat allows?

Yes — up to 1GB per file, in original quality. Snapchat compresses and caps sizes; we don't touch the file at all.

Do I need an account?

No. Neither you nor the recipient needs an account. Upload, share, done.

Is it really free?

Completely free, no ads, no watermark, no speed limits.
