Send a File With a Simple PIN Code
Upload a file and get a 6-digit PIN code. Share the code by text or voice, and the recipient enters it to download on any device — no link, no login, no tracking.
How PIN code file sharing works
Sharing files by link has a downside: the link is long, easy to mistype, and often tied to a trackable account. A PIN code is simpler. When you upload a file to Shooting File, you get a short 6-digit code — something you can read out loud over the phone, drop into a chat, or jot on a sticky note.
The recipient opens Shooting File on any device, switches to the Receive tab, types the PIN, and the file downloads. No account, no app, and no long URL to copy. Because access is gated by the exact code rather than a public link, the file is not floating around as a guessable address.
The PIN — and the file it unlocks — expires after 10 minutes, so even the code becomes useless once the transfer window closes. It is the same idea as a one-time code: simple to share, quick to use, and gone shortly after.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does sending a file with a PIN code work?
Upload your file and Shooting File generates a 6-digit PIN. Share that PIN, and the recipient enters it on the Receive tab to download — no account or link needed.
How many digits is the PIN code?
Each transfer gets a randomly generated 6-digit PIN code, valid for 10 minutes.
Could someone guess the PIN and access my file?
The code is random and the file only exists for 10 minutes, which makes guessing within the window impractical. After expiry the PIN no longer unlocks anything.
Why use a PIN code instead of a download link?
A PIN is shorter, easier to share verbally, and isn't a public URL. There is no long, trackable link to leak or mistype.
