Why timLinq

A simpler way to send files.

A single photo or a 10 GB folder. Sending is just as simple.

Private by design

No account needed. The app does not collect telemetry or usage analytics, and your files never pass through a server or cloud storage.

NO CLOUD

Works without internet

Nearby devices connect using the fastest available option: a shared Wi-Fi network, a direct Wi-Fi connection, or Bluetooth.

No complicated setup

Open the app, select your files, choose a nearby device, and send. No cloud uploads or sharing links.

Know your files arrived intact

Each file is checked for transfer errors before it is made available on the receiving device.

Three simple steps

Simple from the start.

  1. 01

    Choose your files

    Choose files, photos, or a whole folder. On a computer, you can also drag files into timLinq.

  2. 02

    Choose a device

    Nearby phones, tablets, and computers appear automatically when timLinq is open on them and “Receive” is turned on.

  3. 03

    Send directly

    Confirm the receiving device. timLinq establishes the connection and checks each file for transfer errors.

Live transfer map

One app. All your devices.

Send and receive files in up to four simultaneous transfers, with one transfer per connected device.

Quick start guide

Send your first files. Keep them organized.
