Full-quality video transfer
Send large videos. Full quality, no compression.
Chat apps shrink videos. Space. sends the original file, up to 50 MB, with a six-character code — sealed on your device, reassembled on the other side, gone in minutes. A drop holds about 96 MB. Works between iPhone, Android, Mac and any browser.
How to send a big video in 30 seconds
- Open Space. and pick the video — original resolution, sent exactly as it is.
- Share the six-character drop code with the person (or open it yourself on another device).
- They enter the code in Space. The file must be 50 MB or under. A drop holds about 96 MB. Sign in only when the send leaves the room.
- They get the original file, byte for byte. The drop deletes itself a few minutes later.
Large videos are chunked into sealed posts and reassembled by the receiver — a sealed drop holds up to 96 MB in total, with individual files up to 50 MB.
Why messaging apps ruin your videos
Chat apps re-encode. Most messengers transcode video to a few megabytes to save bandwidth — 4K becomes 720p, colour is flattened, frame rates drop. Fine for a clip, terrible for footage you shot to keep.
Email refuses them. A 25 MB attachment cap doesn't survive contact with a two-minute 4K clip, which can be 400 MB or more.
Cloud drives demand accounts. "Share a link" turns into sign-up walls for the receiver — and your footage sits on a drive forever.
Space. sends the file itself, up to 50 MB. Sealed on your device with a key derived from the drop code, chunked, stored as sealed bytes, reassembled unchanged. No re-encode. A drop holds about 96 MB and the relay accepts up to 100 MB. No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far.
Who this is for
- Filmmakers and creators handing a clip under 50 MB between a phone, a Mac and an Android tablet — the original file, not a re-encode.
- Families sharing event video without a group chat that compresses everything to mush.
- Anyone on the go: shoot on the phone, then hand the file to a laptop with a six-character code — or, from the phone and Mac apps, with the radar on hotel Wi-Fi. No cables, no cloud.
Frequently asked questions
Does Space. compress videos when sending?
No. Space. sends the file you picked, exactly as it is — sealed before upload, reassembled unchanged on the receiving device. No re-encode, no resolution drop.
How big a video can I send?
Large files are chunked into sealed posts and reassembled by the receiver. A sealed drop holds up to 96 MB in total, with individual files up to 50 MB, and stays available ~15 minutes — so both sides should be online around the same time.
Can I send a video from iPhone to Android without losing quality?
Yes — one of the most common reasons people use Space. The iPhone app sends the original .mov/.mp4 and the Android side receives the same file. Nothing is re-encoded to fit an ecosystem.
Do I need an account to send a large video?
No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far. The file is sealed on your device with a key derived from the code. The relay stores the sealed bytes and a lookup id, not the code. Each file is limited to 50 MB.
Send the next video the way you shot it.
Original file, up to 50 MB, one code, deleted after the hand-off. No account needed nearby. Sign in only to send far.
