A SwissTransfer alternative for photos and videos from many people

SwissTransfer sends up to 50 GB for free. Here’s when it’s enough, and when you need a place where everyone can add their files.

In short
  • SwissTransfer: up to 50 GB per transfer, no account.
  • You choose how long it stays and how many downloads it allows.
  • For many senders into one place, a Room is simpler.
STEP 1

What SwissTransfer does well

According to its site, you can send up to 50 GB per transfer without an account, choose 1 to 30 days, and limit how many times it can be downloaded.

STEP 2

Where it gets in the way

Infomaniak’s help says the Download All archive is capped at 10 GB, and a 30-day transfer is deleted after 15 days unless the sender extends it. It is built for one sender, not for a group adding to the same place.

STEP 3

Use a Room when many people send

One link, and everyone adds photos and videos from their own phone, no account. Download all gives you everything; a big Room comes in several ZIP parts.
