You then send this link on WhatsApp, allowing the recipient to download the file in its original quality without filling up their phone's internal storage.

Most email services limit attachments to roughly 20-25MB. Upload the file to FileXL instead and paste the download link into your email. The recipient downloads it from the link, and you can add a password or the self-destruct option.

Every file transfer on FileXL is protected by TLS (HTTPS) encryption in transit. Furthermore, you can manually apply a password lock to your upload, or enable the "Self-Destruct" feature, which permanently deletes the file from our servers the moment it is downloaded once.
