When EasySend Beats AirDrop
AirDrop is fast and convenient between Apple devices in the same room. But it fails when:
- The recipient has an Android phone (most of the world)
- You are not in the same location (remote teams, distributed clients)
- The recipient is not ready right now (they can download later with a link)
- You need a link to share (for group chats, emails, documentation)
EasySend gives you a link that works on any device, any time, anywhere. Upload from your iPhone, share the link with an Android user across the country. They download in their browser.
iPhone to Android File Transfer
This is the most common use case. Open easysend.co on your iPhone browser. Tap to upload photos or files from your camera roll. Copy the link and text it to your Android friend. They tap and download. No app install on either end.
