# An AirDrop alternative for every device

AirDrop is great between Apple devices. LinkBoard works in any browser, so an iPhone, an Android phone, a Windows PC and a Linux laptop can share one room.

## How to do it

1. Create a room on one device.
2. Scan the QR code with the other device – any brand, any system.
3. Send photos, files, links or text.
4. Download or copy them on the other side.

## Works across platforms

LinkBoard runs in the browser, so it does not matter who made your devices. Send from an iPhone to a Windows PC, from Android to a Mac or between two Linux machines.

Nothing to install and no account – the room is ready the moment you open it.

## What is different from AirDrop

AirDrop sends directly between nearby Apple devices, even offline. LinkBoard goes through the internet instead: both devices need a connection, but they can be in different rooms or different cities.

Files can have up to 100 MB each, and rooms delete themselves after 1 hour to 7 days. For large video files AirDrop or a cable is still the better choice.

## Questions and answers

### Does it work between iPhone and Windows?

Yes. Open the room in Safari on the iPhone and in any browser on the PC – files, photos and links go both ways.

### Do the devices have to be close to each other?

No. They only need the internet. You can send something to your office PC from home.

### Is it as fast as AirDrop?

Links, text and photos arrive almost instantly. Large files depend on your upload speed, because they travel through our server.

### Is it free?

Yes. LinkBoard is free and needs no account or app.

### Is it private?

Only people with the room link or code can open it. Turn on “Require password” for sensitive files; the room is deleted when it expires.
