Which one should you pick?

Pick Send Anywhere if
You’re building around peer-to-peer transfers. Send Anywhere does peer-to-peer file transfer using a six-digit code, no account, no upload to a server in the middle. The free tier handles up to 10GB, and it's surprisingly fast for direct device-to-device sends.

Frequently asked
What does MASV do better than Send Anywhere?

What are the trade-offs?
MASV: $0.25/gb compounds fast at scale. Send Anywhere: sender and receiver both need to be online. Whether either matters depends entirely on what you actually need — neither is a deal-breaker by itself.
Do they support the same platforms?
Send Anywhere works on iOS, Android where MASV doesn't. If you're on a specific OS or device, that may decide for you.
