How is ShareQR different from WeTransfer?

WeTransfer requires your email and recipient's email to send files. ShareQR uses QR codes — just scan and download instantly. ShareQR also supports nearby WiFi sharing and text sharing, which WeTransfer does not.

ShareQR has a Nearby WiFi Sharing feature that lets you share files between devices on the same WiFi network — even without full internet access. WeTransfer requires internet for every transfer.
