How to Send Large Video Files Without Email or Cloud Storage
Email is convenient until the attachment is a video.
Gmail caps attachments at 25MB, while Outlook and iCloud Mail cap them at 20MB. A minute of 4K video can already be hundreds of megabytes, and longer exports quickly reach several gigabytes.
That is why we built large-file transfer into SEYFR.
What SEYFR changes
SEYFR transfers the original video between devices rather than compressing it for messaging or uploading it to cloud storage first.
No artificial file-size limit
No video compression or re-encoding
No account required
No advertising
Transfer speed depends on the devices and network connection
Available across iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux

Receive the video
On Mac, Windows, or Linux: select Receive, paste the token, optionally choose a destination folder, and click Receive.
On iPhone or Android: select Receive, scan the QR code or paste the token, click Receive, then save the video to Photos.
This works for phone recordings, 4K exports, ProRes footage, RAW video, project archives, and other large files.
