Questions
What is Tossway?
A web tool for sending text, screenshots and files between your phone and computer with a 5-character pickup code, a link or a QR code. Nothing to install, no account; up to 10 files at once.
Do I need an account or an app?
No. It works in the browser on phones and computers. You can also add it to your home screen to open it like an app.
Are my files safe? Will they be used for anything?
Everything travels over HTTPS and is stored encrypted on Cloudflare. We do not look at, analyse, sell or share what you send, show no ads, and never use it to train AI. We only check an item when someone reports it as illegal.
Who can see what I send?
Only people who have the pickup code or link. With a pickup password, the content is encrypted in your browser (AES-256) and the password never reaches our server, so not even we can open it.
A code is only 5 characters. Can someone guess it?
Codes are random, with over 28 million combinations, and we limit how fast anyone can try codes, so guessing one is very unlikely. For sensitive files, add a pickup password: even with the right code, nobody can open it without the password. Burn after reading and a short expiry help too.
How long is my content kept? Is it really deleted?
1 day by default; you can choose from 10 minutes up to 7 days. Once it expires nobody can open it, and it is wiped from storage within a day. Revoking from the device you sent it from deletes it immediately, and burn-after-reading items are deleted after the first pickup.
Is there a size limit?
Each file can be up to 256 MB, 10 files at a time. Files sent directly to a nearby device do not go through our server.
What are nearby devices?
Devices on the same network with Tossway open see each other, and you can send with one tap; the other side must tap Receive. Paired devices see each other on any network.
Does it cost anything?
It is free to use.
