Love it!
For many years, I have struggled with different applications in transferring videos. Some that compress the file and compromise its final quality. Thus far I am loving this application – we have used it now for slightly over a week and all of our finished products are crystal clear in addition to remaining high-quality. we also love the ability to encrypt video with a password for those that will end up receiving and downloading it. I also am in love with the fact that we can a lot is certain timeframe before. The video itself expires. I no longer have to have tons of videos on my iPhone.

What happened to auto-view?
I loooove wetransfer. It took me so long to find something like wetransfer to send my files and it’s really the best. But what happened to the auto-view for videos? I used to be able to send a link and if you long pressed it and opened it in chrome it would just start playing automatically. Now it makes you wait to download the video before viewing which for some people is a huge hassle. I’m having more people request Dropbox view links now as well so they don’t have to download. Hopefully u can bring this feature back? Otherwise I love wetransfer and I use it every day, several times a day! Would love to see this feature return.

Best App for the Money
I record footage for a wedding band. OPOV Band…look us up in Facebook and instagram, I send the footage via We Transfer after every gig to our content editor. I sent 6.11gb of footage this morning, combinations of video and pictures, and it took less than 10 minutes, connected to a wifi connection, and the footage is available for 1yr, I love this. This is must have app for anyone that needs send anything larger than a text message or email will allow. Thank you We Transfer, you guys rock. 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽💯💯💯

Great however Needs work would like to see Group emailing
It’s great that we transfer has an app, I use the web based all the time on my phone . However when sending a file to multiple people I would have to enter the emails manually. Good thing the web based version save a history of the emails you send to so you will only have to enter a few letters . I believe adding a group to send to multiple emails would save me a lot of time , I normally send about 18-25 emails . So by adding group emailing I would just click on the group I wish to email and bam! Done ! We transfer please consider thank you

App crashes
The web site works fine, but the latest version of the app has crashed multiple times today trying to scroll down on the Files Received screen as previews of every audio and video document ever received took their sweet time loading. Can’t say if this is new, since I use the web site mostly, but don’t recall it happening from the few times on the app before today.

Drop it Like it’s hot
I’ve been using WeTransfer since almost the very beginning and it has really served my needs well. It’s simple to use, an effective tool for transferring file sizes that are larger than email can accommodate. And the best thing is that if you need to send files frequently, you can upgrade to their paid plan, which is very generous for what it has to offer.

Poor design choice for a mobile app
When transferring files from a phone the user most constantly monitor the phone to make sure the screen does not lockout. When I use go pro app to download videos, I never have this problem. I should be able to click transfer and leave the app open walk away for a long period of time and it just automatically be done. Stop making users sit by the phone to tap it just so it doesn’t log out. You can fix that with an update. Most of the remainder of the app is good. This is a very important feature though.

Stole my money and it didn’t work
I downloaded the app on 3.6.23 and purchased it. Thankfully I only did month to month, something told me to. It kept telling me to verify my email but wouldn’t let me. The email sent wouldn’t work so I kept having send me new ones and those wouldn’t work. I even tried I’m web browser. I reached out to support and they were beyond unhelpful. Told me to verify my email ummm gee thanks and then in the second email they right away said if I want to give up they totally understand! They did not want to help me at all they didn’t even offer me a refund even though I wasn’t able to use the app not even once

Change website’s ads.
Can you please change your website’s ads? They’re really annoying because they block up the entire bottom half of the screen when I’m trying to do something important on a country name generator website. I am given your website’s ads all THE TIME! It’s really annoying that I have to stop what I’m doing and press the extremely tiny down button every single time to get back to what I am doing! Can you please make your website’s ads not cover up the entire bottom half of the screen? When you do, thank you.

A flawed app for iPhone
I love this app for transferring stuff from my iPhone with ease. It’s made things so much easier when I need to send a couple hundred images to someone. However, for some reason the app saves the transfer data into my iPhone’s “other” storage and it never expires even after the 7 day period has passed. As a result, with every transfer I send, the size of my “other” storage grows and deleting the app and reinstalling it does nothing to get rid of the cached data. The only way to delete this data is to reset my iPhone and restore it from a backup. Fortunately I chose an iPhone with a high storage capacity but it does get extremely annoying to have to reset my iPhone to clear this redundant WeTransfer data every so often. I’m at nearly 40 GB of lost space at the moment. Would really love to see this issue get fixed.

Depends on the day….
It’s my preferred transfer method. I typically send 2-4 minute videos downloaded to files in iOS or dropbox. I’m never sure which wetransfer will work, from the site or the app - usually the site is fine and the transfer is done in a decent amount of time. I rarely use the app and this might be why - it failed multiple times to load until finally it sent today but took 4 minutes. WeTransfer is typically so helpful and easy to use - not sure if this is an app thing?

Trying to decide if I should pay for WeTransfer it’s good
WeTransfer is very good but it’s a little confusing how to first initially use it and try it out. It seems to have a lot of back doors and front doors and ways to go about using it but you always want something simple that’s going to be easy to load from your photos or videos and then just email it to somebody

Hope it works again
Used it a couple times in the past but since about two weeks this app is freezing when uploading. I‘ve reinstalled it many times and the problem still occurs. Tried through wetransfer app and through photo app, same same. Just tried today with newest version again. No success. I‘ll try again in a couple days but if this continues then its worthless. Using iOS 16.1 on iPhone 11 Pro with newest app version 3.1.1 - this problem has been around since at least a week now.

Great for transferring videos from phone to PC
Until I found the WeTransfer app I kept filling up my iPhone with videos, to the point of, once, the phone dying. Now I can film, transfer and download to my laptop far more reliably than by using iTunes. Just make sure you don’t move around your WiFi zones and the uploads work very smoothly.

Works 100% of the time and FAST too
I use WeTransfer for all of my file transfers. WeTransfer is easy to use and with the $12 monthly subscription there’s no limit to the file sizes to send. WeTransfer has high quality transfers. I recommend this WeTransfer to any videographer or photographer looking to transfer files easily and quickly. Thank you WeTransfer!

Worst App Ever
I downloaded this app for my acting auditions. Any transfer you want to last more than 7 days you have to pay for. And when I paid for it.. was given no instructions how to lengthen time. even on their help page it says nothing about time limits. Tried to talk to customer service and it’s just a bunch of multiple choice. again. none having to do with lengthening the time your transfer if available after you’ve upgraded. only to be told to email my device model? worst experience i want my $12 back

App not stable
I use WeTransfer frequently. I downloaded the app today and tried it for the first time. I was trying to share a link via email and the app kept canceling the message before I was done entering the recipient’s address. Adding the recipient is very clunky too. After several unsuccessful attempts I settled for getting a link and had problems with that too. They have to work on this app to make it more reliable.

Takes a while to upload
Maybe nothing to do withWeTransfer, but took 2.5 hours to upload 4 clip iMovie, then it only played part of iMovie on a windows computer. So had to remake 2 clip intro as separate iMovie and 1 clip outro. Not sure where the movie got edited in the transfer but it makes me look like i am not good at this and someone has to put all this together on their end

No able to contact support
It is very frustrated not being able to contact any human being on this app, they send marketing emails all the time and I have many questions that are never responded by the robot chat. How I can upgrade my subscription from PRO to PREMIUM with my same email ? Apparently it’s impossible. Before I used to change expiration dates easily . Nor it’s impossible to do it from the app. Option deactivated .

Great App…needs more speed
The app does a good job at what it supposed to do however I wish it had more speed behind the uploads for people that do events or have to send multiple videos after a certain occasion. Also wish I could send at least 5 GBs at a time instead of just the number that it sends now.

Always goes “Ops, failed”
I have rarely had a fun experience with this service. After a complete 100% it goes “Failed”. I did not close the app, I did not do anything else. The app was open the entire time I kept tapping so my phone doesn’t sleep. Still yet the same outcome. I decided to give it a try just recently and noticed the new UI but still the same experience like years ago. I use the IPhone 12PM iOS15+. This should not be a problem in 2022.

Missing an option to choose a size
It’s a great app, but it’s lacks an option to choose actually size of files and photos that you want to transfer. When you transfer files and photos on web app you have that option.

Crashes During Upload
I just downloaded the app, and before I can even attempt to send any files, it keeps crashing while I’m uploading, then when the app reopens, the files that had previously uploaded (but had not been sent) before the crash are gone, too. When I begin to start the process again, the error reoccurs. Disappointing, as I do really like WeTransfer from my use of its website.

Doesn’t work -
Unable to open links sent to my email with the iOS app. When it opens, it opens in a web browser. You can then click open this link in app through the website but all it does is open the App Store despite it already being downloaded. You then click open and it just brings you to the home page but not to the files sent to you. Additionally, the developers don’t let you delete your account.

Persistent Title Issues
The app serves its purpose and functions well. One major issue is that all items that were titled prior to being uploaded are given what appears to be a randomly generated title of jumbled letters and numbers. I have yet to find a fix to this besides exporting the files from my phone to my computer then uploading from there.
