Link Sharing for PC

Sharing a batch of high-resolution photos or a lengthy video file to your team or family becomes straightforward when Link Sharing runs on your desktop. On a PC, you can organize and queue files using your full keyboard and mouse, keep the app open alongside email or messaging windows, and maintain a single active session without juggling phones. Link Sharing handles original-quality transfers up to 2GB daily, eliminating the need for cables or cloud account reconfiguration for each recipient.

Link Sharing on PC version brings file distribution into your desktop workflow. Whether you're sending uncompressed photos to a design team, transferring video files to collaborators, or distributing media to a group, the app works across Windows and integrates into your existing computer setup. The core limitation (2GB per session and files stored for two days) shapes how you plan larger projects, but for everyday sharing tasks, the platform meets most needs.

How Link Sharing Handles Different File Types

The app accepts virtually all file formats: photos, videos, documents, archives, and other media. It transfers them at their original size without compression or conversion, which matters most when quality cannot be sacrificed. One exception: APK files are blocked for legal reasons. This constraint rarely affects standard desktop users unless you're distributing Android packages, but it's worth knowing upfront if your workflow involves that type of content.

Three Ways to Send and Receive Files

Link Sharing offers multiple pathways to match different sharing scenarios. You can send directly to contacts in your phone or computer address book for one-to-one or small-group transfers. You can generate a shareable link that recipients open in a browser: useful when you don't have contact details or prefer a public handoff. You can also create a code-based share, where recipients enter a short code to access files. Each method works without requiring the recipient to install software or sign up for an account.

Desktop Workflow and Session Management

Running Link Sharing on your computer lets you stay at one location without switching between devices. You sit at your desk, files are queued and sent while you work in other applications, and the transfer happens in the background. Because files remain on Samsung's servers for two days after upload, recipients have a window to download at their convenience. If you're managing a daily limit of 2GB, spacing out your sharing across the day or planning batches ahead keeps the workflow fluid.

WiFi File Transfer and Cross-Device Coordination

Link Sharing relies on internet connectivity rather than USB cables or physical proximity. WiFi file transfer makes it ideal for home networks, offices, and remote setups where devices are already online. If you switch from Send Anywhere (File Transfer) or similar services, you'll notice Link Sharing's 2GB-per-session cap and two-day retention policy differ: plan accordingly for larger projects. The trade-off is simplicity: no complex settings, no pairing codes, just send and let recipients grab files on their schedule.
