Claim this listing →Shortlist IcyZip if you or your team keep mailing files to yourselves or using WhatsApp to self just to move a link, OTP or a small file between a phone and a laptop, and you would rather not sign into anything on a shared or office computer. It costs nothing, needs no account or app, and its browser encryption code and tests are published for anyone to inspect.
Before relying on it, check that your files fit under the 25 MiB limit and that both devices can stay online with the tab open, because there is no storage, history or resend. On a shared computer, clear the text field, press Disconnect and close the tab when you are done, since the current text can stay in that tab in plain form. It is a utility from a one-person Austrian operator with no terms of service page, no stated support commitment and no paid plan; its only commercial link is a credit to the operator's web agency, so treat it as a handy tool rather than business infrastructure. If you already use Google Drive, AirDrop or WhatsApp Web for this, the trade-off is privacy and zero sign-in against storage, bigger files and longer-term reliability.

In short
IcyZip is listed under Productivity & Knowledge, reviewed for Indian buyers. FindThatSoftware rates it best for moving a link, code or short note from a phone to an office or shared computer without logging into any account, as long as you clear and close the tab afterwards; a poor fit for teams that need shared folders, file history or links that work after the sender closes the tab.

Audit your spendIcyZip is run by Richard Andresik, a registered sole trader in Steyr, Austria, who also runs the web agency blitzweb.net. It pairs two browser tabs by QR code or a short link and gives them a shared live text field, so a link, code or note typed on one device appears on the other straight away. Either side can also send one file at a time, which the vendor caps at 25 MiB, and the receiver downloads it from the browser. The vendor says text and file bytes are encrypted in the browser with WebCrypto (P-256 ECDH, HKDF and AES-GCM) before they reach its relay server, and that comparing the optional check code shown on both devices is what detects a relay that tampers with the key exchange. It publishes that browser encryption code with runnable tests under the Apache 2.0 licence, while the server code stays proprietary, and both devices still run the browser code that IcyZip's own server delivers. Both browsers must stay open and online for the whole handoff, there is no offline queue or stored download link, and the server can still see metadata such as timing, file name, file size and IP-derived country.

Whether IcyZip issues an India GST invoice is not verified yet. Foreign-billed tools usually don't, in which case a registered business reclaims GST via reverse charge; confirm the vendor's billing before you buy.
IcyZip can work for Indian buyers, but check currency, tax, billing, support, and whether the workflow justifies foreign-currency pricing.
IcyZip lists a free plan, but check the official pricing page for current usage limits before choosing it.
