Good to know

- Files go directly between the two computers and are encrypted on the way. They are not stored in the cloud.
- Keep Flecto, the sharing browser tab and your PC awake until the transfer ends. Closing either one stops sharing.
- Some strict networks and firewalls block direct connections, and Flecto does not use a paid relay. If it cannot connect, try another network.
- Desktop Chrome and Edge save files of any size straight to disk. Other browsers can receive up to 128 MB.
- One person can use each link, for up to 24 hours. If a transfer drops, start a new link. Your original files are never changed.
Questions
Does the other person need Flecto or an account?
No. They only need the link and a web browser. Desktop Chrome or Edge works best for large files.
Are my files stored in the cloud?
No. Flecto only helps the two computers find each other. The files themselves go straight from your PC to the other browser.
Does it work between countries?
It works wherever both people are online, as long as the two networks allow a direct connection. Some restrictive networks block it, and there is no relay fallback.
How many files can I send?
Up to 1,000 files in one link. Folders need to be zipped first.
