A Clean, Ad-Free Send Anywhere Alternative
Send Anywhere pioneered 6-digit key transfers, but has become overloaded with intrusive video ads, app install prompts, and tight 10-minute timeout windows. LimeShare delivers the same direct P2P transfer capabilities in a clean, private, ad-free interface.
