For Facebook users looking to share files directly with friends, Pipe is a Facebook app that enables peer-to-peer file transfer without the need for external file hosting services. Pipe allows users to send files up to 1 GB in size directly to friends who are also using the app. If the recipient is offline, files up to 100 MB can be stored on Pipe's servers for a limited time.

Key Features

Pipe offers a straightforward way to share files with Facebook friends. The app operates within the Facebook ecosystem, requiring users to authorize access to their Facebook data. Key features include:

• P2P file transfer for users online
• File storage on Pipe's servers for offline recipients (up to 100 MB)
• Ability to send files up to 1 GB when both parties are online

Usage

1. Access the Pipe app on Facebook and authorize its access to your data.
2. Search for friends to share files with; if they're online, you can transfer files directly.
3. If your friend is offline, you can still send files, which will be stored on Pipe's servers for a selected period.
4. Recipients receive a notification and can access the file by accepting the transfer.

Benefits and Limitations

Pipe simplifies file sharing on Facebook, making it a convenient tool for users. However, both sender and recipient must use Pipe for the file transfer to work seamlessly.
