Frequently asked questions.

Yes — completely free. Create a room and start sharing instantly. No sign-up, no credit card, and no limits on text sharing.

No. There’s no account, no email, and no sign-up. Open pastehere, create a room, and start sharing across your devices right away.

Create a room and you get a unique six-digit code. Enter that code on your other devices to pair them with the room.

From then on, everything you paste syncs across every connected device in real time, end-to-end encrypted.

Any device with a modern web browser — desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones. There’s nothing to install; just open the room on each device to connect it.

Text snippets and files of any type — code, links, notes, images, documents, anything you’d put on a clipboard.

Files can be up to 15 MB each.

In real time. Paste on one device and it appears on the others within moments, no refresh needed.

Open the same room on as many devices as you use. Each one pairs with the room using its six-digit code.

Yes. Because pastehere runs in the browser, a Windows PC, a Mac, an iPhone, and an Android tablet can all share the same room at once.

Up to 15 MB each, with 100 MB of total storage per room.

For bigger transfers, a dedicated file-transfer service is a better fit — pastehere is built for quick, clipboard-style sharing rather than large uploads.

Not on a timer. Your messages and files stay in the room until you remove them — delete a single item, clear the room, or destroy the room (which permanently wipes everything in it).

You can also turn on auto-cleanup, which drops the oldest items once the room reaches 80% of its storage.

Delete individual items, clear the room, or turn on auto-cleanup so the oldest items are dropped automatically once the room hits 80% full.

Yes. Everything is end-to-end encrypted with AES-256. Our servers only ever store ciphertext and can’t read your content.

Your data stays until you remove it; destroying a room permanently deletes everything in it.

No. Your content and filenames are encrypted on your device before they’re uploaded. The server only ever sees ciphertext, sizes, and timestamps — never the contents.

When you pair a device using the room code, the two devices run a password-authenticated key exchange (a PAKE) over that code.

The shared room key is derived on your devices and is never sent to the server.

Destroying a room permanently deletes everything in it — every message and every file. There’s no recovery, by design.
