Features

Β  One of instant.io’s key features is its robust streaming capabilities. Files are not just transferred but streamed which means that recipients can start using parts of files even before the whole file has been completely transferred. This comes in particularly handy when dealing with large files or media content.

Β  The second distinguishing feature of instant.io lies in its utilization of WebTorrent - a torrent client for web browsers. This means you don't need to install any additional software to use instant.io. All file transfers happen directly from your web browser, enhancing security and making it perfect for users looking for a simple, yet powerful solution for sharing files.
