TiniDrop is the simplest way to share any file online. Upload a file — a PDF, ZIP, HTML page, or image — and you instantly get a short shareable link. No account required for free uploads.

No. Free uploads require no account. Your file is hosted for 7 days and then automatically removed. Create a free account if you want to manage your files, see analytics, or keep links permanently.

ZIP, HTML, HTM, PDF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WEBP, and SVG. HTML files render as live pages in the browser. PDFs open in an inline viewer. All others trigger a download.

Most files upload in under 3 seconds on a standard broadband connection. Large files (up to 10 GB on Pro) may take longer depending on your connection speed.

After uploading, copy the short link shown on the success screen. Paste it anywhere — email, Slack, WhatsApp, a website, or a presentation. The recipient does not need an account to view the file.

Free: 5 MB · Starter: 25 MB · Solo: 75 MB · Pro: 10 GB.

Free and Starter plans allow 1 active file at a time. Solo allows 5 simultaneous active files. Pro allows up to 15.

Yes. From your dashboard, delete the old file and upload the new version. The new file gets a new link. If you need the same link to point to an updated file, use the custom domain feature (Solo and above) to map a fixed domain to your latest upload.

Files are not publicly listed — only people with the link can access them. You can add extra privacy by enabling password protection (Solo plan and above).

Yes. TiniDrop works on all modern mobile browsers. Tap the upload zone to open your device's file picker.

Free links expire after 7 days. After that the file is deleted from our servers and the link returns a 404. Upgrade to Starter or above for permanent links that never expire.

Custom expiry dates are available on paid plans. From your dashboard, select a file and choose "Set expiry" to pick a specific date.

They see a clean "This file has expired" page. On Pro, you can set a custom 404 redirect URL so they are sent to a page of your choice instead.

Yes. From your dashboard, click the delete icon next to any file. Deletion is permanent and the link immediately stops working.

Free (no account), Starter ($7/mo), Solo ($15/mo), and Pro ($35/mo). All paid plans are billed monthly or yearly (save ~30% annually). See the Pricing page for a full feature comparison.

Yes. You can upgrade immediately — your new plan features are active as soon as payment processes. Downgrading takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

All paid plans come with a 7-day money-back guarantee. No questions asked. Contact support within 7 days of purchase for a full refund.

Go to your dashboard → Settings and click "Cancel subscription". Your plan stays active until the end of your paid period, then reverts to Free.

All major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) via Stripe. Apple Pay and Google Pay are also supported in supported browsers.

On Starter and above, after a successful upload, TiniDrop generates a QR code that links directly to your file. Download the QR code image and print it on business cards, posters, or presentations.

Available on Solo and above. When enabled, anyone who opens your link is shown a password prompt. Only people who know the correct password can view the file.

Available on the Pro plan. When enabled, visitors must enter their email address before they can view the file. Captured emails are stored in your dashboard under the "Email Captures" tab.

Available on Starter and above. A small floating button appears on your shared file page. Visitors can leave a star rating and a short message. Responses are stored in your dashboard.

Starter and above show total visit counts per file and a 30-day visit chart in your dashboard. You can also see which files are receiving the most traffic.

"Powered by TiniDrop" branding is removed automatically on all paid plans (Starter and above). Your file page shows a clean, unbranded header.

Yes, on Solo and above. Add your custom subdomain (e.g. files.yourdomain.com) in your dashboard Settings tab. Then add a CNAME DNS record pointing it to your TiniDrop Worker URL.

In your domain registrar's DNS settings, create a CNAME record: Name = "files" (or any subdomain you choose), Value = your TiniDrop Worker URL. DNS changes typically propagate within 1-24 hours.

Yes. TiniDrop runs on Cloudflare Workers which provides automatic SSL for all custom domains at no extra cost.

Available on Pro. When someone opens a link that no longer exists, instead of showing TiniDrop's default error page, they are redirected to a URL you specify — typically your own website's 404 page or homepage.

Yes. The TiniDrop REST API is available on Solo and Pro plans. Generate an API key from your dashboard → API Keys tab.

Send a multipart POST request with your API key in the x-api-key header: curl -X POST https://tinidrop.com/api/upload \ -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" \ -F "file=@yourfile.pdf" The response includes the shareable URL.

Upload files programmatically, integrate TiniDrop into CI/CD pipelines, automate file distribution, or build custom upload workflows in your own app.

API calls are subject to the same plan limits as manual uploads. Solo allows 5 active projects and 75 MB max file size; Pro allows 15 projects and 10 GB.

All files are stored on Cloudflare R2, a globally distributed, highly durable object store. Files are stored encrypted at rest.

Files are stored as binary objects. We do not open or read the contents of your files. We store file metadata (name, size, type, slug) for operational purposes.

If you find a TiniDrop link hosting illegal or harmful content, report it using the Report Abuse page. We review all reports within 24 hours and take down content that violates our Terms of Service.

For analytics, we record visit timestamps and anonymised IP hashes (hashed with a salt, not stored as plain IPs). We do not use cookies for tracking and do not sell data to third parties.
