Send files

  1. 1Choose Send files and add the files. They upload straight away; you can keep adding while they do.
  2. 2Name the link and add a note. Choose when it ends and, if you like, how many downloads it allows.
  3. 3Add a password to stop anyone else who sees the link from opening it. Send the password separately, by text or a call.
  4. 4Ask for their name and email to see who downloaded each file. Leave Email me when they download on to hear each time.
  5. 5Make the link, then copy it, share it on WhatsApp or by email, or show its QR code.

Collect files

  1. 1Choose Collect files, say what you need and give instructions, for example a photo of an ID and a utility bill.
  2. 2Share the link. People give their name and email, choose files from their phone or computer, and send. They need no account.
  3. 3Files appear under the link with who sent them, and you get an email. Only you can open them.
  4. 4Files from other people can carry viruses: open them with care. Programs cannot be uploaded.

Manage a link

  1. 1Open a link to see how often it was opened and downloaded, and the activity: who, when, on what kind of device.
  2. 2Change its end date, set or remove its password, take files out, or switch it off. A switched-off link can be switched back on.
  3. 3Delete with its files removes the link and everything in it for good.
