WhatsApp sharing
Send it through WhatsApp without letting it shrink
WhatsApp re-encodes photos and video sent as media, and its document ceiling has moved more than once. Upload the original to FileFast and paste one link into the chat.
A clearer transfer
Fast to send. Simple to receive.
Original quality
Nothing is re-encoded. The download matches what left your machine.
Works in groups
One link in a group chat serves everyone in it, without each person re-downloading a separate attachment.
Nobody needs an account
Recipients open a browser page. There is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for.
What the limit actually is
Media, documents and the moving ceiling
Media is recompressed, documents are not
A video sent as media is re-encoded so it downloads quickly on a phone. The same file attached as a document keeps its size, which is why the two behave so differently.
The number keeps changing
WhatsApp has raised its document ceiling several times, and it varies between platforms and versions. Any figure written here would be wrong within a year.
A link is not re-encoded at all
The chat carries a URL. The file is downloaded from FileFast at the size you uploaded, on any platform, at any version.
Media or document
The same file arrives at two different sizes
Send a clip as media and it is re-encoded for whatever phone it lands on. Attach the same clip as a document and it is not. Most people never find out which one they used.
Quick answers
Before you send
The essentials, without another wall of feature cards.
Does WhatsApp compress the link?
No. A link is text. The file is fetched from FileFast when someone opens it.
Can I send a folder?
Yes. Folder transfers keep the structure, which a chat attachment cannot do at all.
Will it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The link opens in the browser on either.
Try it with the next thing you have to send
Choose the files, share one link, and see what happens after it lands.
