The P2P File Transfer extension enables you to easily and securely send and receive files between peers.

To work with this app, please open it on at least two different machines (peers). Press the SENDER button on one machine, and the RECEIVER button on the other one. Enter the 6-digit token number from the sender machine to the receiver and then press the JOIN button. Once the app is ready and the connection is made, you can send files between these two peers. Please browse or drag a file to the blue circle area and wait for the file transfer to start. To cancel the file transfer, please press the orange cross-icon at any time. You can also reload the app to cancel the ongoing progress. This extension uses WebSocket and WebRTC technologies to make the initial connection and handshakes between peers. Once the initial setup is completed, a secure direct channel is established between peers, and third-party servers are not needed and used anymore.

Note: this extension uses WebSocket and WebRTC servers for the initial connection and handshake operations between peers. Please read this (https://mybrowseraddon.com/privacy-policy/p2p-file-transfer.html) page to get more info.

If you have a feature request or found a bug to report, please fill out the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/p2p-file-transfer.html).

User reviews

This is not a Peer-to-Peer connection. Files get uploaded first from the source, then downloaded by the receiver. This means that the files get uploaded on a server and then the extension on the receiving end fetches the data from that server.

didnt work the first time but was able to get it to work when doing sender/receiver on the second attempt when I was able to get the + on both browsers to drag and drop files. Works well on everything I connect to. Tested on a iMac transfer to my windows laptop and also my steam deck in desktop mode to my legion go to copy large files over.
