A wireless flash drive alternative with no hardware

Wireless flash drives launched at roughly $30 to $100, with a built-in battery and their own Wi-Fi network. SpareDisk gets a similar result with two devices you already have.

Where a hardware drive wins

It stores files by itself, independent of any phone, and it works with no second device online.

Where SpareDisk wins

Nothing to buy or charge, no joining a separate Wi-Fi network, and no companion app to install. Pairing is a QR code and a typed code.

Which to pick

Choose the drive if you want a standalone storage device. Choose SpareDisk if you want to move files between devices you already own.

Try it with the two devices you have

Open SpareDisk on both, scan the QR code, type the reply code, and send. Free to start, no account.
