Send large files

The Smash alternative

Smash lets you send big files, but the free tier can be slow, ad-supported, and everything routes through their cloud. BIShare sends large files through a free browser link — and when the other device is nearby, it skips the upload entirely and transfers straight across, instantly. End-to-end encrypted, no account, free.

Why switch from Smash?

Smash is handy for oversized files, but the free plan throttles speed, shows ads, and always uploads to the cloud first — so a file you're handing to someone in the same room still makes a round trip to a server. BIShare gives you a free 100 GB link with no ads, and for nearby transfers it removes the upload completely: the file goes device to device, end-to-end encrypted, as fast as your network allows.

How BIShare sends big files

  • Nearby, with no upload

    If the other device is on your network, BIShare beams the file straight across — no cloud round trip, no queue, end-to-end encrypted. There's no size cap, and it works over a hotspot with no internet.

  • Far away, via a link

    Share a link, QR code, or 6-character code for files up to 100 GB free. The recipient opens it in any browser and downloads — no app, no account, no ads. Links expire after 24 hours.

  • On any device

    iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux — send from any platform to any other, or to anyone with just a browser.

Smash alternative: FAQ

What is the best free Smash alternative?

BIShare. It sends large files through a free browser link like Smash, but with no ads and no account — and it can transfer files instantly between nearby devices with no upload at all.

Can I send large files for free?

Yes. Share links carry files up to 100 GB free. For nearby device-to-device transfers over your own Wi-Fi there's no size limit, because nothing is uploaded to a server.

Is BIShare faster than Smash?

For nearby transfers, much faster — the file skips the cloud and goes straight between devices at network speed, with no upload wait or queue. For remote links, there's no artificial throttle.

Do I need an account?

No. BIShare needs no sign-up to send or receive. You share a link, QR code, or 6-character code, and the recipient opens it in any browser.

Is it private?

Yes. Nearby transfers are end-to-end encrypted and never uploaded. Share links are encrypted in transit, can be end-to-end encrypted, and auto-expire after 24 hours.
