Will the files be stored in a cloud?
Absolutely not. With File Sender desktop app, the files are sent directly from sender to recipient - no cloud relay or storage of any kind. The app is self contained to both transmit and receive files using direct P2P connectivity.

How does a direct file transfer work?
An end-to-end encrypted channel is created between the sender's and recipient's apps. Once created, all files are transferred through this channel. The files are never stored on any servers when using the desktop File Sender app.

How will I know that my recipient downloaded the file(s)?
As a sender, you will be alerted by the app when the recipient completes the download. After that, no additional downloads will be possible. This is by design and provides extra security - a single download per download invitation.

Would it be faster to use OneDrive, Google Drive, or iCloud Drive?
Direct transfers between parties are faster since they can begin immediately, without a separate upload and download process. As soon as the sender selects files to be transmitted, the recipient can start downloading them immediately. An upload is a download.

How are files transferred without a central service?
The File Sender app provides all core capabilities necessary to send or receive files. It does so using direct peer-to-peer connectivity established between the sender's and recipient's apps.
