tmps.fyi

What is tmps.fyi?

tmps.fyi is a free online clipboard and temporary file-sharing tool that links a phone, tablet, and computer through one shared space in the browser. You paste text, share clipboard images, or upload files on one device, then copy or download them on another. The site states that no app or sign-up is needed and that content syncs in real time.

How to use tmps.fyi?

1. Enter a name for a temporary space. You can add a password if you want to limit who can join.
2. Open the same space name on another device, or use an invitation link or QR code.
3. Type or paste text, add images, or upload files on either device. They appear on every connected device.
4. Leave when you are done. Once the last device leaves, an inactivity countdown starts and the space is deleted when it ends.

Key features of tmps.fyi

• Sharing of text, clipboard images, screenshots, and files
• Screenshot capture from the sharing toolbar on desktop
• Real-time sync across connected devices
• Optional password for any space
• Join by space name, invitation link, or QR code
• Works across Windows, macOS, iPhone, iPad, and Android in modern browsers

Automatic cleanup

By default, a 10-minute inactivity countdown begins after the last device leaves a space. When it ends, the space and its stored content are deleted. This makes the tool suited to short handoffs rather than long-term storage.

Use cases for tmps.fyi

Moving content between phone and computer

Send a CSS snippet, test link, or error message from a computer to a phone while debugging, or pick up a lecture slide or meeting screenshot on a phone and forward it in a chat.

Sharing during a call

Keep a meeting running on one device while placing a link, image, or small file in a space and opening it on another.

Cross-platform transfers

The devices do not need to run the same operating system. If both have a browser, they can open the same space. The site compares this with emailing yourself, AirDrop, cloud storage, and USB cables, which each require an account, an Apple device, extra setup, or a cable.
