Cross-platform file sharing

AirDrop, without the ecosystem lock-in.

AirDrop stops at Apple devices. Quick Share stops at Android. Space. is the missing middle: photos, videos, documents and links move between Android, iPhone, iPad, Mac and any browser with a six-character code. End-to-end encrypted. Each file up to 50 MB. No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far.

How to AirDrop between Android and iPhone in 30 seconds

No cable, no cloud drive sign-in, and no app store download required on the receiving side.

1

Pick your file

The sender opens Space. on iPhone, Android, Mac, or in any web browser and selects what to move.

2

Seal with a code

Space. generates a 6-character code and cryptographically seals the file on-device before anything leaves.

3

Receiver opens browser

The receiver opens spaceapp.cloud in Safari, Chrome or any browser — no install — and enters the code.

4

Unseals & deletes

The payload unseals directly on their machine. The temporary drop self-destructs a few minutes later.

On the same Wi-Fi, the iPhone, Android and Mac apps can also find each other and hand off in one tap. The browser always uses the code.

Why people switch to a code instead of a platform

Cross-platform families & teams

One unified workflow for every mix of iPhone, Android, Mac and Windows PC in the room.

Receiving without installing

Friends, clients, or classmates just open a web link — the six-character code is the only thing needed.

Sealed on your device

The encryption key is derived directly from the code. The relay stores sealed bytes, not your plain files.

Self-destructing by default

A drop is a hand-off, not a permanent locker — all bytes vanish automatically after 15 minutes.

The radar is in the iPhone, Android and Mac apps, on a shared Wi-Fi network. Bluetooth is a same-platform fallback: Apple to Apple, Android to Android. macOS has no Bluetooth radar. The web app does not discover devices; it covers everyone else, including a PC, with a six-character code.

Frequently asked questions

Can AirDrop send files from iPhone to Android?
No — AirDrop only works between Apple devices. Space. covers that gap: the receiver opens spaceapp.cloud in any browser and types the six-character code, no app install needed on their side.
What is the best AirDrop alternative for Android and iPhone?
Space. is built for that gap: Android, iPhone, iPad, Mac and any browser. Files are sealed on the device with a key derived from the code. Each file is up to 50 MB. No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far.
Do both people need the Space. app?
No. Only the sender needs the app — and even they can use the web app. Receiving is just: open page, enter code.
Does an AirDrop-style transfer need Wi-Fi?
It depends. Same Wi-Fi, in the iPhone, Android or Mac app → the radar finds the device and hands off directly. The browser does not. Phone-to-phone, Bluetooth also works beyond Wi-Fi — iPhone to iPhone, Android to Android. Different platforms or networks → the same sealed package moves over the internet with a code, so mobile data works too.
Is Space. free?
Yes. Free, no ads. No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far. Drops are deleted after about 15 minutes.

Your next cross-platform transfer is one code away.

Open Space., share the code, done. Works with the person on the other ecosystem — whoever they are.
