Questions
- How do I transfer photos from my phone to my PC without a cable?
- Open this page on the PC, scan the QR code with your phone's camera, tap the link and pick your photos. They appear on the PC within seconds, and you can save them one by one or as a zip.
- Does it work with iPhone and Android?
- Yes. Any phone whose camera reads QR codes works. The computer can be Windows, Mac or a Chromebook: anything with a browser.
- Are my photos compressed?
- No. The original files are sent, at full resolution. iPhone photos arrive as HEIC unless your iPhone saves JPEG; Windows opens HEIC once Microsoft's free HEIF Image Extensions is installed.
- Is it private?
- Only the computer showing the code can see what you send. Photo links expire after an hour, and everything is deleted after 24 hours.
- How much can I send?
- Up to 100 photos and videos (2 GB) per transfer, with photos up to 50 MB and videos up to 500 MB each. It's free.
