The key difference: where your files go

SEYFR uses tries sending files directly between your devices. A relay helps the devices connect if direct device connection fails, then steps back when a direct path works. If no direct path can be established, it forwards the end-to-end encrypted transfer without reading or storing the file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free Send Anywhere alternative?

SEYFR's core features are free to use today. It supports file transfers between supported Android, iPhone/iPad, macOS, Windows, and Linux devices. This is a statement about the current product, not a “free forever” promise.

What is a free alternative to Send Anywhere for large files?

SEYFR does not impose a fixed transfer-size cap; device storage, filesystems, operating systems, memory, network conditions, and network conditions apply. Speed depends on the devices and network path. SEYFR connects your devices directly with end-to-end encryption. Your files move straight from device to device without uploading to cloud storage.

Does Seyfr require creating an account?

No. Seyfr requires no account, no email address, and no sign-up. Open the app and you're immediately ready to transfer files.
