A Send Anywhere alternative built around links, not keys
Skip the 6-digit codes and apps: share a link, protect it with a password, and see who downloaded, all on the free plan.
Send Anywhere is known for direct device-to-device transfers using a 6-digit key and its apps. That is great for two people at the same time, but link sharing, longer retention, and an ad-free experience often depend on paid plans. EasyFileUpload is link-first: upload once, share a URL that works for anyone, with no per-file size limit, free download analytics, and no ads.
