AirPhoto lets you send photos and videos from your iPhone to any device — no app needed on the receiving end. All the receiver needs is a web browser. Scan a QR code, and your photos arrive in original quality on any PC, Android phone, or tablet. ■ Two ways to share - Share on the same Wi-Fi Blazing-fast transfer to devices on the same network. Your iPhone becomes a tiny server; the receiver simply opens a page in their browser and downloads. - Share over the Internet (NEW) Send to someone far away. Photos travel directly from device to device with encryption — they are never stored on a server in between. ■ Three steps either way 1. Pick your photos and videos 2. Tap a share method 3. The receiver scans the QR code — transfer starts ■ Highlights - No app install for the receiver (any browser works) - Original quality — no recompression - Internet sharing is peer-to-peer: your photos are never stored on our servers - Add photos straight from the Photos app share menu (NEW) - No sign-up, no account Perfect for moving photos to your computer, sharing with family and friends on the spot, or migrating to Android. Note: Depending on network conditions (e.g., both devices on cellular), a direct internet connection may not be possible. In that case, please use local sharing on the same Wi-Fi.

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AirPhoto at none against MagicSSH's 1. AirPhoto also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.5). MagicSSH's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
