How does the Mac app work?

Hi there! Sorry to confront you with some big red text like this, but you need to know that at this time, members of the WeTransfer Support team can't assist you with any issues related to our Mac app.
The app is still available to download, and should function as expected, but if something starts going haywire, we're not going to be in a position to help out. Sorry to disappoint!

With our Mac app you can send files straight from your desktop. Neat, right?

  • Click the app and choose "Upload files..." to get started,

  • or drag and drop the file onto the app icon, and your upload will start instantly.

Once the upload is complete, the icon will be entirely blue and your download link will be ready for you to copy.

Because our Mac app is built to share link transfers, you’ll only receive a confirmation email the first time it is fully downloaded.

No worries, if you're logged into your Pro account we'll show your five last transfers.

Just go ahead, copy and share them - that's what they're there for!

Your transfers will stay online for 7 days using the free service and the Mac app but with your Pro account linked to the Mac app, the transfers are set to never expire! You can change this by changing the expiry date in your account settings as seen by clicking here.
