Send anything to anyone. Privately.
A free, open-source app that sends files end-to-end encrypted, to any device or to anyone with a link. No cloud storage, no accounts, no size limits.
How a transfer happens
Pair once with a QR code or a short code — after that your devices recognize each other, and files move straight between them.
They don't need the app
Share a link and they download in the browser — no install, no account, straight from your device.
Built for transfers. Not uploads.
FAQs
Because each alternative makes you trade something away. AirDrop only works between Apple devices. WeTransfer uploads and stores your files, capped at 2 GB free. LocalSend and Snapdrop only work on the same network. AlterSend keeps what's good about each without the tradeoff: cross-platform, unlimited size, no cloud storage, and it works over the internet just as easily as on your Wi-Fi.
This app beats Localsend and Blip, and has the potential of becoming really big!

It's completely free, open source, and works on tons of different platforms. The developer is always making it better.

Why upload your files to Google Drive, Dropbox, or WeTransfer just to share them once?

Try AlterSend as well, it is P2P file sharing, very fast and nice pairing between devices (cross-platform).
Supports P2P like Blip, but without an account — seems like best of both worlds.
An alternative to NordVPN Meshnet, thanks.
Cross-platform peer-to-peer file transfer tool, no account required, no cloud relay needed — files of any size can be transferred directly between devices.
This is what WeTransfer should have been: files of any size, directly between devices — no uploading to the cloud, no middlemen, no accounts. 100% private and open source.

Awesome! I've tried to use Blip in the past, but it's SO buggy and unusable. I'll be trying this out!
Looks amazing — this will be finally the replacement of WhatsApp to transfer files?
Installed to test, so far it's working great.
Cloud storage often gets stuck at snail-paced uploads, and the recipient has to log in just to download. AlterSend focuses on direct file transfers between devices, without going through any cloud server relay.
Peer-to-peer file transfer, end-to-end encrypted, no account, no server, and no size limit. A direct alternative to WeTransfer or Google Drive for those who prefer to keep their files out of the cloud.
I'm using this program on all devices. Thank you for making it.
I really like the experience and share between my devices. Huge advantage is no cloud.
