iPhone → Android
Send files from iPhone to Android
Your iPhone won't AirDrop to an Android phone, and Quick Share pretends the iPhone doesn't exist. BIShare bridges the gap: send photos, videos, and any file from your iPhone straight to Android — over local Wi-Fi in seconds, or through a link the other phone opens in any browser. No app to install on the Android side.
Why you can't AirDrop to Android
AirDrop speaks an Apple-only language, so it stops at the edge of the Apple world — iPhone, iPad, Mac, and nothing else. Google's Quick Share does the same thing in reverse: it links Android and Windows but has no way to reach an iPhone. So the most ordinary handoff of all — passing a photo from your iPhone to a friend's Android — falls through the crack between them. BIShare exists to close it.
How BIShare sends iPhone → Android
On the same Wi-Fi
Both phones on one network? BIShare sends each file directly between them, end-to-end encrypted, with nothing kept on a server. It's quick — and it still works off a phone hotspot when there's no internet around.
When you're not together
Far apart, or the Android owner would rather not install anything? You get a share link, a QR code, and a 6-character code. They open it in any browser and download — no app, no account. The link clears itself after 24 hours.
Every platform
It isn't only iPhone to Android. One app moves files between iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux — pick any two and send, in either direction.

iPhone to Android: FAQ
How do I send files from an iPhone to an Android phone?
Install BIShare on the iPhone. On the same Wi-Fi, pick the Android phone from the list and send — files go directly, end-to-end encrypted. Not on the same network? Share the link, QR code, or 6-character code and the Android phone downloads it in any browser.
Can I AirDrop from iPhone to Android?
No — AirDrop is Apple-only and can't see Android devices at all. BIShare does the same job across both: direct nearby transfers when the phones are together, and a browser-based link when they're apart.
How do I send photos and videos from iPhone to Android without losing quality?
BIShare sends the original file, so photos and videos arrive at full resolution — no messaging-app compression. Nearby transfers over your own network have no size cap, and single files up to 100 GB work over a share link.
Does the Android phone need to install an app?
Not to receive a link — they just open it in a browser and download, no app or account needed. Installing BIShare on the Android side makes nearby transfers faster and unlocks every feature, but it's never required to receive.
Is there a file size or cost limit?
BIShare is free with no account. Nearby transfers over your own Wi-Fi have no size limit; share links handle single files up to 100 GB and expire automatically after 24 hours.
