Frequently asked
- Do I really not need to install anything?
- Correct. Beam is a website, so there is no app to download, no permissions to grant, and nothing taking up storage. You paste a link and get a file.
- Is a browser tool safe compared to an app?
- A browser tool cannot dig into your photos, contacts, or notifications the way an installed app can request to. Beam only ever sees the public link you paste in.
- Does it work on both mobile and computer?
- Yes. The same site works in mobile Safari and Chrome as well as any desktop browser, so you can download from whatever device you have on hand.
