We all know the friction of sending a file from phone to laptop, or to someone on a different platform: the wrong cable, slow uploads, login prompts, expired links, or apps that want you to install a whole suite.
I’ve been working on a side project called QuickSend to remove that friction. It’s a lightweight tool focused purely on the “everyday transfer” — moving files, text, and links between any devices as quickly as possible, without forcing you into an ecosystem or a cloud folder hierarchy.
How it’s different:
Vs. Cloud Drives (Google Drive, etc.): Made for instant handoff, not storage. No upload delays or folder organization for a one-time send.
Vs. Messaging Apps: Keeps transfers separate from conversations. Perfect for “send-to-self” without cluttering chats.
Vs. Native Tools (AirDrop, etc.): Works cross-platform (Android, iOS, Windows, Mac) when native tools fail or aren’t available.
Vs. Link Services (WeTransfer, etc.): Optimized for speed and repeated small transfers, not just large one-off sends.
The goal is to make sharing as close to “send now” as possible, removing steps like hunting for cables, waiting on uploads, or digging through chat history later.
I’d love to hear your thoughts:
Does this match the file-transfer pains you run into daily?
What’s the one thing you wish existing tools (AirDrop, WhatsApp, Drive, etc.) did better?
(If you’re interested in trying it out or learning more, feel free to reply or DM me! I’m here primarily to get feedback on the concept.)
