How do I send files from my iPhone or Android phone?

Pandafile works in the browser on your phone, so you can send full-quality photos and long videos without squashing them through a messaging app. There is no Pandafile app to download; the website does everything.

Send from your phone

1. Open Safari, Chrome or your usual browser and go to pandafile.co.
2. Tap "Choose files".
3. Your phone asks where to pick from. On iPhone, choose Photo Library, Take Photo or Video, or Choose File. On Android, pick from your gallery, Files or Drive.
4. Select one or more items and tap Add or Done. They appear in the list on Pandafile.
5. Choose "Get a link" or "Send by email" and tap Send.
6. Keep the screen on until you see "Sent!", then tap "Copy link" and paste it into WhatsApp, Messages or anywhere else.

Getting the best results on mobile

• Use Wi-Fi for big videos. Uploads count towards your mobile data and are usually faster on Wi-Fi.
• Keep the browser open and the screen on. Phones often pause background tabs to save battery, which pauses the upload.
• If your signal drops, don't panic. Pandafile's uploads are resumable and carry on from where they stopped when you are back online.
• On iPhone, your phone may convert some photos or videos into a more compatible format when you pick them. If you need the original files, choose them from the Files app instead.

Can I send a folder from my phone?

Not every phone browser supports picking a whole folder. If the option isn't available, select the files individually, or zip the folder in your Files app first and send the ZIP.

The same limits apply as on a computer: up to 10 GB in total per rolling 7 days for free with files kept for 7 days, up to 250 GB per transfer with Plus (kept for 14 days), or up to 1 TB per transfer with Pro (kept for 30 days).
