Step 1: Uploading Files #

1. Visit the Filifly Platform: Go to the Filifly website on any device with an internet connection. You don’t need to sign up or log in to start sharing.
2. Select Files for Upload:
   • On the main page, you’ll see an option to upload files.
   • Drag and Drop: Either drag your file directly into the upload area, or use the “Browse” option to find it on your device.
   • File Size Limit: Ensure each file is within the size limit (typically 20MB for free users). For larger files, consider splitting or compressing before uploading.
3. Start Upload: Once you’ve selected your files, Filifly will begin the upload process, which may take a few seconds to complete, depending on your file size and internet speed.
4. Receive Unique Code: After a successful upload, Filifly generates a unique code for your file. This code is essential for sharing and retrieving your file.

Step 2: Sharing Files Using the Unique Code #

1. Copy the Code: The unique code that Filifly provides acts as the “key” to access your file. Copy this code once it appears on the screen.
2. Share the Code:
   • Messaging or Email: Send this code to your recipient via any messaging platform, email, or text.
   • Chat App Notifications: If you’ve set up Filifly with a chat platform (like WhatsApp or Telegram), you can receive and forward the code directly through that app.
3. File Expiry: Note that the code—and the file—will expire after 24 hours. Ensure the recipient has received the code within this time frame to avoid needing to re-upload.

Step 3: Receiving Files with a Code #

If someone has shared a Filifly code with you, follow these steps to retrieve the file:

1. Go to Filifly’s Website: Open Filifly’s website or app on any device with internet access.
2. Enter the Code: On the homepage, you’ll see two tabs, Send & Receive. Go to Receive Tab and you’ll see an option to enter a code. Type or paste the code exactly as it was shared with you. Then click on the Receive Files button.
3. Download the File: Once the code is verified, the file associated with it will become available for download. Click “Download” to save the file to your device.
4. Time-Sensitive Access: Remember, the file will be available only until the code’s 24-hour expiration. Be sure to download it promptly.
