Account-free discovery

Discover devices near you

Nearby helps you find LendAFile devices close to you, so you can share files, request files, or invite someone to a Room without copying links or scanning codes.

Your browser location and its reported accuracy are held temporarily while Nearby is on. They are used only for proximity discovery, are never shown to other users, and become unavailable within three minutes after presence updates stop. Expired records are periodically deleted. Location is requested only when you choose to enable it. No account is required.

LendAFile guide

Privacy-focused sharing for short-term files.

Use temporary rooms, room codes, expiry, and optional passwords to reduce unnecessary long-term file exposure.

Direct answer

Privacy-Focused Temporary File Sharing

Privacy-focused sharing starts by limiting access and storage time. LendAFile helps by making rooms temporary and accessible by code instead of requiring public permanent folders.

How it works

Create, share, expire

Create a room

Pick a room code, room title, and reservation time.

Add content

Upload files, save notes, and keep everything in one temporary place.

Share access

Send the room code and remind recipients to download important files before expiry.

Is temporary sharing better for privacy?

It can reduce long-term exposure because files are removed after expiry, but users should still avoid sharing material that violates policies or laws.

Can I add extra access protection?

Yes. Add an optional password when creating the room.
