DeviceHop, the No-Cloud File Handoff
A browser-based tool for sending files directly between phones, tablets, and computers using a QR code or temporary invite link.
Field notes
The transfer session begins with a temporary invite link and QR code, then connects two browser tabs for file selection and delivery. The page says devices can communicate across different networks, not only on the same Wi-Fi, and supports multiple files in one session. It lists a 512 MB limit per file. DeviceHop describes encrypted WebRTC as the normal path and says an encrypted relay may handle traffic when a direct connection is unavailable.
