We’re talking about Send Anywhere, an app that uses Wi-Fi Direct to beam things directly between devices.įiles (50GB file-size limit) you send are 256-bit encrypted, and you’ll get a key that you need to give to the recipient so that they can receive the file. No, we’re not talking about Bluetooth (which is slow and only good for small files). If you and the recipient are in the same vicinity, then why go through all the hassle of uploading a large file all the way to the Internet only for them to download it again when you can just send it over directly? You type in your email address (so the recipient knows who it’s from and so you get a notification when your file is received and opened), type in the recipient’s email, and then add your files. The browser version is actually simpler in some ways, as the app is a bit more fancy and presents your added files in “Boards,” letting you share links as well as directly send files. WeTransfer has an Android version, though if you prefer to save on disk space, you can just use the browser version through your phone. It allows you to send 2GB of a file for free and 20GB if you are on the premium plan. WeTransfer is the go-to website for anyone who has found themselves in a file-sending rut and just wanted to get things done with minimal hassle. It goes without saying that for local transfers of large files, this is one of the fastest methods available.
Everything you send is protected by end-to-end encryption, and you can also send messages and notifications to other devices.Īll the linked devices are neatly listed in the Material-inspired interface, and you can make small tweaks such as changing your visibility to other devices, who you receive messages from, and whether or not you want to receive notifications. There are no ads or catches here – just a simple interface that lets you share files directly between local EasyJoin devices without needing an internet connection.
