NewVersion 0.1.4

Your phone, on your computer.
Without a browser tab.

Portal for computers starts with the computer and waits for your phone. Share a photo on the phone and it's already in Pictures.

Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit · 106 MB · Free · Other systems

What's new

Send from the phone's share menu, find it in the right folder.

Share → Portal
On Android, Portal is in the share menu: photos go straight to the computer, without opening anything.
Sorted by type
Photos land in Pictures › Portal, PDFs and Word files in Documents › Portal. No more digging in Downloads.
Send from iPhone
A Shortcut puts “Send to Portal” in the iPhone's share menu. Set it up once from the app.
Lid closed, still there
Plugged in, the computer stays reachable with the lid closed (Linux). It never sleeps on its own while Portal runs.

All downloads

Installing on Fedora

sudo dnf install ~/Downloads/Portal-x86_64.rpm

Windows says it protected your PC?

Click “More info” → “Run anyway”. The app isn't signed yet; it's the same Portal as on the site.

On your phone

No app store: Portal installs from the browser in a few seconds and updates by itself.

Scan with your phone's camera

Open sendviaportal.com/p in Chrome.
Tap “Install app” (or ⋮ → Install app).
Done: Portal is on your home screen, and in the share sheet — share photos from the gallery straight to your computer.

Open sendviaportal.com/p in Safari.
Tap Share → “Add to Home Screen”.
To send from Photos with Share, add the Portal Shortcut: Send from iPhone (needs Portal for computers).
