# Floppy vs Smash

> Smash is a friendly way to send big files with no sign-up, and its free transfers are larger. Floppy also needs no sign-up for agents, and shows who opened the file and which pages they read.

Floppy (https://fpy.sh) shares a file as a short link and shows who opened it, page by page. Smash is a European service for sending large files, free with no sign-up.
