LendAFile guide

Password-protected file sharing for short-term access.

Share documents and media through a temporary room code with automatic expiry and optional password protection.

Direct answer

Secure Temporary File Sharing

Secure temporary sharing starts with limiting who gets access and how long content remains available. LendAFile combines room codes, automatic expiry, and optional password protection.

Details

Quick protected document sharing

Add an optional password when creating a room, then share the room code and password separately with the intended recipients.

Details

Clear security boundaries

LendAFile reduces unnecessary persistence through automatic expiry, but it does not claim end-to-end encryption and should not replace systems required for regulated or highly sensitive records.

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.
