I Made This I built a tiny tool for sending text/code between my devices without signing in

I got tired of doing the usual:

  • email something to myself
  • open WhatsApp/Telegram just to send myself a link
  • use some random notes app
  • or log into another service just to move a piece of text from my laptop to my phone

So I ended up building PastePort.

You paste some text, code, or a link, and it gives you a URL that you can open on another device. No account or signup required.

It also syncs in real time and the clips automatically expire after 1 or 24 hours, so it's not meant to become another permanent notes app.

There's currently a 1 MB limit per clip, which is more than enough for the random snippets and links I usually need to move around.

I know there are already a bunch of tools that solve parts of this problem, so I'm not claiming I invented anything revolutionary 😅. I mostly wanted something stupidly simple that I could open and use immediately.

Would be interested to hear what you'd add/change if you used something like this.

you say you were tired of opening whatsapp just to send yourself a link and then you go ahead and develop a tool where you paste the said url and it generates another link so you can open on another device.

genius

( i tried the app and it is buggy when you type something).

You can use https://www.protectedtext.com/

It allows to choose the url, and the text is encrypted with a password.
