How much can I send?

On the free plan you can send up to 5 GB in total per rolling 7 days. The meter under the buttons shows how much you have left this week, for example 3.8 GB of 5 GB left this week, and when space frees up again. Free transfers are kept for 3 days and then deleted for good. With Pro you can send up to 1 TB in a single transfer and files stay for 30 days.

What if my connection drops?

Nothing is lost. Pandafile uploads in small pieces, so if your Wi-Fi drops, the upload carries on from where it stopped once you are back online. Keep the tab open until it says your files are ready.
