Step-by-step guide
Videos from phone to PC. No compression, no upload.
Sending a video via WhatsApp compresses it into a blurry shadow of the original. Emailing it runs into size limits. Uploading to Google Drive takes as long as watching the video twice. This guide transfers your video directly from phone to PC at original quality, no server in the middle.

Why the usual methods fall short for video
Compresses video to save mobile data. A 200 MB 4K clip can arrive as a 20 MB 480p file. The compression is applied server-side and cannot be disabled.
Most providers cap attachments at 25 MB. A one-minute 4K video is already over that limit before it reaches your outbox.
Google Drive / iCloud
Uploads the full video to a server first, then the computer downloads it again. A 1 GB video takes two full upload-download cycles before it lands on your PC.
Five steps to send a video without compression
- 01
Open QuickBridge on your computer
Go to quickbridge.app in any browser on your Windows or Mac. A QR code and 6-digit PIN appear on screen. This is the session your phone will join.
- 02
Scan the QR code with your phone
Open the Camera app on your iPhone or Android and hold it over the QR code on your computer screen. The transfer page opens in your mobile browser. Alternatively, open quickbridge.app on your phone and enter the PIN.
- 03
Confirm the emoji codes match
Both screens show the same sequence of emoji. Check they match before proceeding. This confirms a direct, encrypted connection between the two browsers.
- 04
Select your video and tap Send
Tap the file picker on your phone. Choose the video from your camera roll or Files app. It starts streaming immediately over the direct connection. No upload step.
- 05
Save the video on your computer
On Chrome, Edge, or Brave, auto-save streams the video directly to disk as it arrives. On other browsers, a download prompt appears. Either way, the file is byte-for-byte identical to what was on your phone.
