About

BeeTransfer

Features
Read full description

BeeTransfer moves your photos and videos between iPhones while preserving the exact original quality, without recompressing or altering a single byte. Unlike other apps that downscale resolution or strip metadata, BeeTransfer sends the complete original file: it includes RAW versions, ProRes, Live Photos, and every resource of each photo. When the transfer finishes, each file is verified bit for bit against a SHA-256 fingerprint, so you know for certain that the received copy is identical to the original. FEATURES • True original quality, with no recompression or conversion. • Full support for RAW, ProRes, Live Photos, and high-resolution video. • SHA-256 integrity verification on every transferred file. • Nearby transfers between iPhones over a direct connection, with no internet required. • Send to your contacts even when they are not nearby. • Your photos and metadata are kept exactly as they are, with an option to remove GPS location if you prefer. Perfect for photographers, creators, and anyone who wants to switch iPhones or share their memories without losing an ounce of quality.
