File transfer for everyone

What it does

ShareBetweenDevices is a free browser-based file transfer tool that connects devices directly — no middleman, no app, no account. How it works: 1. Open the site and drop a file (or paste clipboard text) 2. A QR code + PIN appear instantly 3. The other device scans the QR or types the PIN 4. File transfers directly, peer-to-peer Built because AirDrop is Apple-only, WeTransfer stores your files in the cloud, and everything else wants an account. 152,000+ files shared so far.

Send a file directly between devices over an encrypted peer-to-peer connection. No upload, no accounts, no storage.

Send files and clipboard text directly between any two devices — no upload, no account, no app. Files travel peer-to-peer between browsers using WebRTC. They never pass through a server and are never stored anywhere. DTLS encryption protects every byte in transit. Unlike WeTransfer, files are never uploaded to a server. Unlike AirDrop, it works between any operating systems — Mac, Windows, Android, iPhone, Linux. Unlike Send Anywhere, no app install is needed. See the full comparison . ShareBetweenDevices uses WebRTC data channels — the same browser API used for video calls in Google Meet. Once two browsers are connected, data flows directly between them. Our server handles only the brief…from sharebetweendevices.com

  Speedy Share2024 · speedyshare.app · ▲2

  Hi HN, I built SpeedyShare because cross-platform file sharing is still unnecessarily complicated, whether it's Android to Mac, iPhone to Windows, or any other combination. Most solutions have limitations - AirDrop only works within Apple's ecosystem, WeTransfer requires accounts for larger files, and many tools need app installations on both ends. So I made SpeedyShare to try and make it simple: - Upload at SpeedyShare.app - Share via QR code or 6-digit code - Works on any device with a browser (desktop or mobile) - No accounts, no tracking (anonymous analytics only) - Files auto-delete…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
