Send Files, Video Call & Screen Share — Free, No Sign-Up
DirectFileTransfer lets you send files directly between devices using WebRTC peer-to-peer technology. No upload to cloud servers, no registration required, no file size limits. Your files go straight from your device to the recipient's device with end-to-end encryption.

- Select files and send — they transfer directly, device to device, with no server in between

- No app installation required — works in any modern browser
- No account or sign-up needed — start transferring files in seconds
Why DirectFileTransfer?
Unlike cloud-based services like WeTransfer, Google Drive, or Dropbox, DirectFileTransfer never uploads your files to a server. Your files are transferred directly between devices, which means faster transfers, better privacy, and no storage limits. It's the perfect AirDrop alternative that works across all platforms — send files from iPhone to Android, Mac to Windows, or any combination of devices.
Not Just File Transfer — Video Calls and Screen Sharing
DirectFileTransfer also supports peer-to-peer video calling and live screen sharing over the same direct, encrypted WebRTC connection. Start a video call or share your screen between devices without installing an app or creating an account.
Works Offline on the Same Network
When both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, transfers stay on your local network and never touch the internet — ideal for moving large files quickly, or for transferring between devices when no internet connection is available.
