AnonTransfer

AnonTransfer is for a quick, live handoff between two devices. It does not create a paste, and no account is required.

Both people must keep AnonTransfer open until the transfer finishes.

Start a transfer

1. Open AnonTransfer on the sending device.
2. Start a session.
3. Share the short connection code or invite link with the other person.
4. On the receiving device, open AnonTransfer and join with that code.
5. Confirm the connected device, then send text or choose files.

During the transfer

• Keep both browser tabs open.
• Wait for each item to finish before closing the page.
• Save received files when your browser asks.
• Only share the connection code with the intended recipient.

The session is temporary. If either person closes the page or the connection is interrupted, reconnect with a new session.

Connection problems

Some work, school, mobile, VPN, or restricted networks do not allow two browsers to connect directly. If the devices cannot connect:

1. Turn off a VPN temporarily if it is safe to do so.
2. Try a different browser or network.
3. Keep both devices awake and AnonTransfer visible.
4. Use a normal file paste when a direct connection is not possible or the recipient cannot stay online.

AnonTransfer or a file paste?

• Use AnonTransfer when both devices are online at the same time and you do not need a lasting link.
• Use a file paste when the recipient needs to download later or you want expiry, password, or other access settings.
