I built an AirDrop alternative for Windows — got my first paying user

I use both iPhone and Windows every day, and moving things between them has always been frustrating.

There’s no AirDrop, so I kept relying on email or chat apps just to send simple things. It always felt slow and broke my flow.

So I built WinSend — a way to send from iPhone to Windows using Shortcuts and even a simple back tap.

Recently, I got my first paying user (from Japan), which made me realize this problem might be more common than I thought.

I’m still early and figuring things out — would love any feedback 🙏

    I don’t have an iPhone so I can’t test it, but the idea makes a lot of sense.

    The iPhone ↔ Windows gap is definitely real, and anything that removes that friction is valuable.

    Getting a paying user this early is a great signal.
