FAQ
Common questions.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Just pick a nickname and start. No email, no password, no verification. Your nickname exists only for the current session.
How long do rooms last?
You choose: 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or no expiry. Once a room expires it's gone — no messages, no files, no trace.
Is there a file size limit?
We don't impose artificial file size caps. Practical limits come from your browser and connection speed. For most everyday files — photos, videos, documents — you'll have no issues.
How is this different from WeTransfer?
WeTransfer is a one-way file drop with a 2 GB limit (free tier) and no real-time chat. FreeBirdChat is a shared room where everyone can chat and share files simultaneously — more like a temporary group space than a delivery service.
How is this different from Snapdrop or ShareDrop?
Snapdrop and ShareDrop use WebRTC and only work between devices on the same local network (same Wi-Fi). FreeBirdChat works over the internet — you can share with someone across the world.
Is my data private?
Rooms are private by default — only people with the link or join code can enter. Public rooms are opt-in. We don't sell your data or require any personal information.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. FreeBirdChat works in any modern browser on iOS and Android. You can also install it as a PWA directly from your browser — no App Store needed.
Is it free?
Completely free. No premium tier, no ads, no subscription.
What is My Drive?
My Drive is a private persistent room that belongs only to you. It's perfect for moving files between your own devices — open it on your phone and your laptop at the same time, drop something in on one side and it appears on the other instantly. Think of it as a personal cloud clipboard that requires no third-party service.
Can I filter files in a room?
Yes. Every room has a built-in filter bar that lets you narrow messages by file type (images, videos, audio, documents, or plain text) and by date (today, this week, this month, or all time). This is especially useful in My Drive when you've accumulated a lot of shared content.
Ready to share without the fuss?
No account. No app store. Just open, share, and go.
