4 Ways to Move a File
Direct Device Transfer
Peer-to-peer connection between devices. Files are never stored on any server. Up to 1 GB, and pairing takes one short code.
Best when both people are online at the same time: the file is encrypted in the sending browser and opened only in the receiving one, and nothing is ever written to our storage. Larger transfers stream straight between the two browsers over WebRTC; smaller ones, and connections a firewall blocks, are passed through our relay as ciphertext instead. The trade-off is availability — if either side closes the tab, the transfer drops, and the 1 GB ceiling makes it a better fit for documents and photos than full video exports.
Standard Cloud Link
Upload your file and get a shareable link that expires on your schedule — 1 hour to 30 days. One email verification, no password to choose.
Because the file sits on our servers until it's downloaded or the link expires, sender and recipient don't need to be online together — send a link at midnight, they grab it the next morning. The trade-off is that we hold a readable copy for as long as the timer you set: storage encrypts it at rest, but the key is ours. Set a password on the upload and that stops being true — the file is encrypted in your browser first, and we hold only ciphertext.
Encrypted Cloud Share
Browser-side AES-256-GCM encryption before upload. The password never reaches our servers, so anyone you give it to can decrypt — and nobody else.
Same asynchronous convenience as a standard link, but the file is encrypted with AES-256-GCM in your browser before it ever leaves your device, so our servers only ever hold ciphertext. The catch is the password has to reach the recipient through a separate channel — lose it, and there's no recovery, since we never see it either.
File Requests
A file request turns the transfer around: instead of sending a file, you ask for one. The person you ask needs no account and no software — they open a link, choose a file, and it lands in your GetFileShare inbox.
Useful when you're the one waiting on a file — a client's ID scan, a contractor's invoice — rather than sending one. The person you're asking needs no account or app, just the link; only you, as the requester, verify an email so the files have somewhere to land.
How It Works
Pick How to Share
Choose direct transfer for real-time delivery, or cloud link for async sharing. Enable encryption for sensitive files.
Select Your Files
Drag and drop or browse. Set an optional password, expiration timer, or download limit before proceeding.
Share the Code or Link
Receive a short room code or a shareable URL. Send it via any channel — the recipient needs nothing else.
Common Questions
Direct transfers need no email and create no account at all. Cloud Share and file requests do create one, tied to the address you verify with a 6-digit code — there is no password to choose, and the device is remembered so later uploads go straight through. You can download or delete that account at any time from the Your Data page.
Files are encrypted in your browser before upload using AES-256-GCM. The decryption key is derived from your passphrase and never transmitted to our servers — only you and the recipient can decrypt the file.
You choose the timer when you create the link — 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days — and it defaults to 7 days. A link keeps working until that timer runs out, unless you also set a maximum download count.
Direct transfer sends files in real time and stores nothing on our servers — larger files go straight between the two browsers, and smaller ones are passed through as ciphertext we cannot read. Cloud share uploads the file temporarily and generates a link you can send later.
