Frequently asked questions
How large can a transfer be?
Up to 2.0 GB and 50 files. Files over 64 MB use multipart upload so the browser can stream parts instead of holding everything in memory.
Is this peer-to-peer?
Dropway is person-to-person, not WebRTC peer-to-peer. Files go from your browser directly to Cloudflare R2, then from R2 to the recipient. Our API only mints signed URLs and stores metadata, so the file stream does not pass through the application server.
How long are files kept?
You choose 1 hour, 1 day, 3 days, or 7 days, counted from when the upload finishes. Expired transfers are deleted. Incomplete uploads are discarded after one hour. Object storage also has an 8-day lifecycle safety net.
Are files encrypted?
Uploads and downloads use HTTPS. Optional transfer passwords are stored as salted hashes. We do not offer client-side zero-knowledge encryption in this version, so do not send highly sensitive material without additional protection.
Why the rate limits?
They keep a free, no-account product from being used as anonymous bulk hosting. Limits are applied per IP hash on the API.
How do I report copyright infringement?
Send a DMCA notice to dmca@dropway.app. Include the transfer URL and the information listed on the DMCA Policy page.
Can I use this as permanent storage?
No. Links expire and files are deleted. Keep your own copy.
