Light Share vs ShareByLight File Transfer

Light Share: Fast, Private File Transfers Across Every Platform Fast, private file sharing between your iPhone, iPad, Mac and all your other devices. Over Wi-Fi or USB, even with no network around. Light Share is the file sharing bridge between all your devices. Send and receive photos, videos, documents and whole folders between your iPhone, iPad, Mac and your other phones, tablets and computers, whatever they run. No cloud storage, no account and no internet connection required. NEAR-BY DEVICES, NO WI-FI NEEDED Not on the same Wi-Fi? Light Share finds nearby devices over Bluetooth and connects them for you. Two iPhones use Wi-Fi Aware on supported models, iPhones and Macs use peer to peer Wi-Fi, and other phones and computers start a private hotspot your iPhone joins. Your files travel over Wi-Fi, never over Bluetooth. BLISTERING SPEEDS • Up to 5.6 Gbps over a USB cable between an iPhone with USB 3 and a Mac • Up to 1 Gbps through the private hotspot of another phone or a computer Send gigabytes in seconds, not minutes. Speeds are from our tests; on your own network, speed depends on your Wi-Fi or Ethernet and on your devices. USB MODE No network at all? Plug in a cable. Transfer between your iPhone and a computer or another phone over USB. WORKS ON EVERY PLATFORM Break down the walls between ecosystems. Light Share runs on the phones, tablets and computers of every major platform, so your iPhone can share with all of them. 100% PRIVATE AND SECURE Your files never touch our servers. Transfers go directly from one device to the other. Turn on Secure Line and every transfer is encrypted with TLS. Pair devices with a QR code or a six digit code, and Light Share warns you if a trusted device's identity ever changes. Every incoming transfer asks for your consent. RESUMABLE TRANSFERS Wi-Fi dropped or the cable slipped out? Light Share picks up where it left off instead of starting over. FOLDER SHARING Send an entire project folder and it arrives with its structure perfectly preserved. UNCOMPRESSED MEDIA Share full resolution photos and 4K videos exactly as they were captured. Zero compression, zero loss in quality. INSTANT QR CONNECT Skip the searching. Scan a QR code or type a short connection code to connect to any device. Not sure how to connect?
