Share Files Between Devices — Phone to PC and Back

Move files between your phone, tablet, and computer in seconds. No app to install, no USB cable, no login — just a PIN code or a quick QR scan.

Cross-device transfers that just work

Getting a file from your phone onto a PC usually means emailing it to yourself, digging out a cable, or logging into a cloud account on both devices. Shooting File works straight from the browser on any device, so you can send from a phone and pick up on a laptop — or the other way around — without installing a thing.

Upload from one device to get a PIN code, then enter that PIN on the other device to download. For phone-to-desktop transfers, you can also generate a QR code on the computer and scan it with your phone to start the upload instantly. It works across iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac because the only requirement is a web browser.

Transfers go over the internet rather than a local connection, so the two devices do not need to be on the same Wi-Fi network. That makes it equally handy for moving a photo across the room or sending a document to a device in another location.

No app to install

Runs in any browser on phone, tablet, or desktop — nothing to download.

QR code transfer

Scan a QR code with your phone to push files to a desktop in one step.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer files from my phone to my PC?

Yes. Upload from your phone to get a PIN, then enter it on your PC to download — or use the QR code option on the PC and scan it with your phone to start the transfer.

Do both devices need to be on the same Wi-Fi?

No. Transfers happen over the internet, so the sending and receiving devices can be on completely different networks.

Does it work between iPhone and Windows?

Yes. Because everything runs in the browser, any combination of iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac works the same way.

How does the QR code transfer work?

Generate a QR code on the receiving device, scan it with your phone's camera, and the upload page opens automatically — the file then downloads to the device that showed the code.
