Frequently asked questions
Is there a size limit?
We set none. A transfer is limited by the free space on the receiving device and by how long both people can keep their browser tabs open. Multi-gigabyte files work; very large ones just take a while on a slow connection.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The files travel directly from one browser to the other. A free public matching service helps the two browsers find each other and only sees connection details, never your files or their names.
Is the transfer private?
Yes. The direct connection is encrypted end to end (WebRTC with DTLS), and the files are not stored anywhere on the way. By default FreeSend also checks every file against the original, so you know it arrived intact.
Do we both need to be online at the same time?
Yes. Nothing is stored on a server, so the sender has to keep the page open until the transfer finishes. That is the trade for not uploading anything.
How fast is it?
As fast as the slower of the sender's upload and the receiver's download. On the same Wi-Fi or network it can be very fast; across the internet it is usually limited by the sender's upload speed.
