Temporary File Sharing That Auto-Deletes

Share a file that doesn't stick around. Your upload and its PIN code expire after 10 minutes and are permanently deleted — no permanent cloud copy, no login.

Files designed to disappear

Not every file should live in the cloud forever. When you are handing off a one-time document — a signed form, a boarding pass, a quick screenshot — a permanent copy sitting in someone's storage is a liability, not a convenience. Shooting File is built to be temporary on purpose.

Every upload is tied to a 10-minute timer. Once the timer runs out, the file and its PIN code are permanently removed from the server, and recovery is impossible. There is no archive, no version history, and no account where the file quietly accumulates. The transfer happens, and then it is gone.

This self-destructing behavior is ideal for sensitive material you don't want lingering, for quick handoffs where storage would just be clutter, and for anyone who would rather a file vanish automatically than have to remember to delete it later.

10-minute expiry

Every file is on a countdown — it is removed automatically when the timer ends.

Self-destructs after the transfer

No need to remember to delete anything; cleanup is automatic.

No permanent storage

Files are never archived or kept in an account — there is nothing to find later.

Encrypted while it lasts

During its short life the file is transferred over secure, encrypted URLs.

How It Works

1

Upload a file

Drag in or select any file up to 100MB. No account needed.

2

Get a PIN code

Receive a temporary 6-digit PIN and share it however you like.

3

Download anywhere

Enter the PIN on any device to download. The file auto-deletes in 10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is a file available?

Files are valid for up to 10 minutes from the moment the PIN is issued. After that, the file and the PIN are permanently deleted from the server.

Can I make a file last longer than 10 minutes?

The 10-minute window is fixed by design to keep transfers temporary. For a fresh transfer, simply upload the file again to generate a new PIN.

Can a file be recovered after it expires?

No. Once the timer expires or the file is deleted, it is permanently removed and cannot be restored — that is the point of temporary sharing.

Why use temporary file sharing instead of cloud storage?

For one-time handoffs, a permanent cloud copy is an unnecessary risk. Auto-deletion means sensitive files don't linger where they could later be exposed.
