Quick FAQ
Is FileTransferFree really free?
Yes. FileTransferFree is free for personal and commercial use, with no file-size or bandwidth limits imposed by us.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. FileTransferFree uses WebRTC to send file chunks directly between your devices. Only a tiny ‘signaling’ message is exchanged through a public broker so the two browsers can find each other.
Can I transfer between iPhone and PC?
Yes. Open FileTransferFree on both devices, share the code or scan the QR, and start sending — works across iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS.
The fastest way to transfer files for free
FileTransferFree.com lets you send any file — photos, videos, documents, ZIP archives — directly from one browser to another using WebRTC peer-to-peer technology. Unlike email attachments (limited to 25 MB), cloud storage links (require an account), or USB cables (need a physical connection), FileTransferFree works instantly on any device with a modern browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS.
Your files travel in a direct, encrypted tunnel between the two devices. Nothing is uploaded to a server, stored in the cloud, or visible to anyone else. Once the transfer is complete, the connection closes and nothing is retained. It’s the privacy-respecting way to move files in 2026.
Send full-resolution photos and 4K videos without compression or quality loss.
Transfer large design files, presentations, spreadsheets, and ZIP archives instantly.
Move game saves, ISO files, and large media collections between your PC and other devices.
FileTransferFree vs. the old ways
Tired of hitting attachment caps, signing up for yet another cloud service, or hunting for the right cable? Here is how FileTransferFree compares to the most common ways people send files today.
| Method | Size limit | Sign-up | Files on a server | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FileTransferFree | No cap | Never | No — direct P2P | Up to your link speed |
| Email attachment | ~25 MB | Yes | Yes (mailbox) | Slow upload & download |
| Cloud share link | Plan-dependent | Yes | Yes (often 30+ days) | Round-trip via cloud |
| USB cable | No cap | No | No | Fast — but you need the cable & a free port |
| Chat / messenger | 100 MB – 2 GB | Yes | Yes (compressed) | Compressed & queued |
How to send a file in three steps
- 1. Open this page on the device that has the file. A short room code appears immediately. No installation, no account.
- 2. Open this page on the other device. Type the code or scan the QR. The two devices connect peer-to-peer.
- 3. Drop your files onto the page. They stream directly to the other browser, end-to-end encrypted, with a real-time progress bar and speed indicator.
That’s it — your file arrives on the other device. You can also send a quick text snippet (a Wi-Fi password, a URL, or a code) using the built-in chat box.
Real-world use cases
- Move iPhone photos to a Windows PC without iTunes, iCloud, or a Lightning cable — just open the page in Safari and Edge.
- Send a 10 GB video to a colleague without uploading to a cloud bucket and waiting hours.
- Share a PDF with a friend across the room when AirDrop refuses to connect or the receiver is on Android.
- Hand off a project folder (zipped) between two laptops on the same Wi-Fi at gigabit-class speeds.
- Push an APK or installer from your dev machine to a test phone without a USB cable.
Why peer-to-peer is better for big files
Cloud-based file sharing services have to upload your data to a server first, store it somewhere, and then let the receiver download it. That round trip wastes time and bandwidth — and it puts a copy of your file on a third-party server you don’t control.
FileTransferFree skips the server. The file leaves the sender’s browser and arrives at the receiver’s browser through a direct, DTLS-encrypted WebRTC channel. There is no upload queue and no download wait — the transfer starts the moment both devices are paired and ends as soon as the last byte arrives. For a large video or a folder of RAW photos, this often means finishing in a fraction of the time.
Privacy is the other big win. Because nothing is stored on our infrastructure, there is nothing for an attacker to steal, nothing for a subpoena to surface, and nothing for us to mine. The file exists only on your device, briefly in transit, and then on the recipient’s device. That’s it.
