Price
Hosting one file is $4.99, paid once. Pro is $39 once and hosts up to 10 files.
- Hosted with no time limit
- Replace the file any time, and the printed code keeps working
- No subscription
- No app needed to open it
Anyone with the code can open the file, so put only what you are happy to share on it. The browser gets a link that works for one hour: a link copied from the address bar stops working, while the printed code keeps working.
Questions
- How long can the video be?
- The limit is 90 MB, not a length. iPhone video at 1080p takes about 60 MB a minute, so plan on 1 to 1.5 minutes; at 4K it is well under a minute. Export at 1080p or 720p for longer clips.
- Which video format plays on every phone?
- MP4 with H.264 video. A MOV from an iPhone often uses HEVC, which some Android phones and Windows browsers do not play. If you are not sure, export or convert it to MP4 (H.264) before you upload.
- Does the video play in an app such as YouTube?
- No. It plays in the phone browser's own video player, with no ads, no suggested videos, and no account. It is not public on any video site.
