How it works
- 1
Open the page on your computer
A QR code shows up, unique to this transfer.
- 2
Scan it with your phone
The camera is enough, on iPhone and Android. No app to install.
- 3
Send either way
Phone to computer or computer to phone: files go straight from one to the other.
For a fast transfer
Put both devices on the same Wi-Fi
It is the fastest setup and the one that works everywhere. On mobile data, some carriers block direct connections.
Keep your phone screen on
A phone that locks stops the transfer. The page asks the screen to stay on when the browser allows it.
On iPhone, choose “Actual Size”
When you pick a photo, your iPhone may offer a smaller size. Choose the actual size to keep the original quality.
A very long video? Take your time
The tool sets no size limit. A video of several gigabytes goes through, at the speed of your Wi-Fi.
Frequently asked questions
How do I transfer a video from my phone to my PC without a cable?
Open this page on your PC, scan the QR code with your phone’s camera, tap the link, then pick the video. It lands in your PC’s downloads folder, with no cable and no app.
Can I send a file from my computer to my phone?
Yes. Once the phone is connected, both devices can send: pick the files on the computer and they land on the phone. On iPhone, tap “Save to Photos”; on Android, “Download”. A phone only keeps a file after you tap.
Does it work with an iPhone and a Windows PC?
Yes. The tool runs in the browser: iPhone or Android on one side, Windows, Mac or Linux on the other.
Can I transfer photos between two phones?
Yes, Android to iPhone included, with no Bluetooth and no app. Open this page on one of the phones: a code shows up. Scan it with the other phone’s camera, then send. On the receiving phone, tap the button under the file to keep it.
What about between two computers?
Yes, with no USB drive and no cable. Open this page on the first computer, copy the link under the code and open it on the second one. Files go from one computer to the other, both ways.
Can I send a file to someone who is not next to me?
Yes: send them the link under the code, or a screenshot of the code to scan. Both pages must stay open during the transfer, since the file goes straight across and is stored nowhere. Between two distant networks, some connections block the direct link: the page tells you when that happens.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The file goes straight from your phone to your computer, encrypted. Our server only introduces the two devices to each other; it never sees or keeps the file.
Do photos or videos lose quality?
No. The file is sent as is, with no compression: your computer gets exactly the same file as your phone.
Do I need an account or an app?
No. All you need is a browser on each device. The tool is free.
Why can’t my two devices connect?
Some networks, often at work or on mobile data, block direct connections between devices. Put your phone on the same Wi-Fi as your computer, then try again.
Is there a size limit?
The tool sets none. The file is assembled in the computer’s memory before it is saved: a few gigabytes go through on a recent computer.
