MallowShare frequently asked questions
Do I need an account?
No. You can create or join a temporary room without creating an account.
Does everyone have to download a ZIP?
No. You can download individual files or selected groups. Optional ZIP packaging is available.
Will it work between iPhone, Android, Windows and Mac?
It is designed for modern browsers on phones and computers. Camera access, background transfers and large-file saving depend on browser support and HTTPS.
Does a QR code bypass the password?
A valid QR invitation acts as a time-limited access credential. It can join directly; manual room-code entry still requires a password.
How fast is a 2 GB transfer?
Speed depends on the source upload bandwidth, receiver network, browser, storage speed and whether a relay is needed. There is no guaranteed speed for all devices.
Is file conversion always perfect?
No. Supported image/document conversion can run locally in the browser, but OCR and complex layouts may lose accuracy or formatting.
Can my room be found in Google Search?
Private rooms and invite links are not intended for indexing. Only public help pages and the homepage should be discoverable.
