What is Send Anywhere?
Send Anywhere is a file sharing service that allows users to share digital content between devices in real time, without using cloud storage. Unlike other services, Send Anywhere supports unlimited file transfers of any type or size across Android, iOS, and desktop platforms. It uses peer-to-peer networking for enhanced security and speed, and doesn't require login or registration. Users only need a one-time six-digit code for file transfers.
To use Send Anywhere, users select a file, click "Send", and share the generated 6-digit key with the recipient. The recipient then enters this key on their device to receive the file. The service also offers a "My Devices" feature for remote file management on registered Windows and Android devices, enabling users to access and send files from one device to another.

Comments and Reviews
Seems pretty awesome to me!
One of the reviewers, artexjay, stated that a Wi-Fi connection is necessary for this app to work, but I was able to send files from my desktop PC, which was Ethernet-cable based (not on wireless, that is), to my cell phone, which was connected ONLY to its data carrier.
Specifically, artexjay said, "Only problem is that you need wifi connection for this app to work, and transfer files."
However, I do admit there is the possibility that when I sent the file from my desktop PC, my wireless router sent the signal over to the cell phone anyway--despite the fact that the desktop PC's wireless option was turned off (as well as my phone being to set to data, only).
You have to be online at the same time to do it.
Other Commenters don't like that "you have to be online at the same time." (This is an intended feature and how P2P is supposed to work.)
(No hate, but) this is how any communications work. IRL your friend has to be listening to you to hear what you are saying, digital communications work the same way. Big (centralized) companies are middlemen listening to you on your friend's behalf, and your friend can pick up messages from the middleman whenever he likes. The disadvantage: a middleman is listening to your conversation.
You have to choose: either have your friend actively listening (P2P) or trust a middleman with your conversation, few middlemen will agree to store large conversations without being paid or allowed to spy on the conversation. This is the tradeoff, if you still prefer middlemen, go use them instead (eg. Wormhole) and deal with their stricter file size limitations.
Though the middleman spying problem can be solved by encrypting the file yourself using eg. hat.sh (or most zip compressors have a password feature). Send the password to your friend along with the share link, it is secure no matter how spyish the service is.
A very good service. I use it regularly. However, the desktop application does not work on Ubuntu version Jammy Jellyfish. I managed to delete it with application manager now, retried the download, now I cannot remove it.
I am using the application for my other Linux Mint laptop but this is an issue I have had before the apps are clunky the website has outdated info regarding a service which was concluded and revamped.
I do recommend the service but not their apps.
mucho mejor que snapdrop. tenia tiempo buscando una alternativa para cualquier otra aplicacion de airdrop para pc y esta es la definitiva, funciona super bien. muy rapida
Be careful with Send Anywhere, I found out it reads my Firefox cookie file and I can't remove profile folder because of that. Spyware - removed.
Just installed on a WIN 10 machine on my LAN and on a Android 9 Tablet I use as a media center controller - seamless installation ans setup on both device transferring files with 10 minutes.It deserves 5 if no issue creep up** Very Pleased especially with its simplicity **
