OTHER USEFUL SHARING APPS:
8. Send Anywhere
I’ve been using Send Anywhere for over two years now. It’s the best non-Indian (and non-Chinese) file-sharing app that is an efficient SHAREit alternative. What swayed me away from SHAREit to Send Anywhere is its file-sharing process. Firstly, you get to send the original file without losing its quality. Secondly, SA puts in place a 6 digits code-based transfer process that is a cakewalk.
Simply select the file you’d want to share, click on Send, and then you’ll see the said code. Tell the other person to punch in the code in the Receive segment of their SA. This is done by making use of a secure link, which is valid for 48 hours. Although, it requires a strong internet connection which can be its only con. Download Send Anywhere from the link below.
Main Features:
- Sends original file size.
- Requires a 6-digits code.
- Share files with multiple people.
- Works anywhere in the world.
