ToffeeShare: If you need to share files remotely, that is, the person you want to share the file with is not on the same network as you, you should use an intermediary service. Often, we email files or upload them to some cloud and then give a download link.
These methods work and are great, but your files are stored somewhere in the cloud, something not everyone may want.
If you prefer immediate File Transfer between 2 computers, you are looking for P2P transfer. This kind of transport is possible, but for end users, it is not very easy to create. That's why we recommend the ToffeeShare app.
The ToffeeShare application works in your browser. You can upload files and share a link with anyone you want. Your browser should remain open and you may not refresh or close the tab on which you have enabled the transfer until it is complete. The file itself is not stored anywhere on the internet.
Once the files are added, the ToffeeShare app gives you a link to share and a QR code that you can scan with your mobile to download the files to your smartphone. The ToffeeShare web app also works great in any browser for cell phones. However, you cannot close the tab in which the transfer is enabled. But you can minimize the window or use another tab. The web application works in all modern browsers.
As for the amount of time it takes to complete the transfer, it depends on the file size. Remember that your file will continue to be sent online at your own speed connections, as well as your recipient's connection speed. The speeds of the two connections play an important role in how quickly the transfer will complete.
ToffeeShare sends all files securely, as it uses end-to-end encryption. There are no limits to the size of the file you want to share.
