Share APK files online — free, instant, no signup

Need to send an APK file to a tester, client or friend? Email providers block APK attachments, messengers re-compress or refuse them, and cloud drives require accounts and permission fiddling. IPALinked exists precisely for this: upload an APK, get a clean download link in seconds.

Upload your build free — get a share link in secondsNo signup · 500MB · Password protection · QR code included

How to share an APK in 3 steps

  1. Drag your .apk onto the IPALinked homepage — up to 500MB, no account needed.
  2. Copy the short link the moment the upload finishes (a QR code is generated too).
  3. Send it anywhere — Slack, email, WhatsApp, Telegram. The recipient taps the link and downloads the APK directly.

Installing the shared APK on Android

When the recipient opens the file, Android may ask them to allow “Install unknown apps” for their browser — that's normal for any app that doesn't come from Google Play. One toggle, and the app installs.

Why IPALinked instead of a cloud drive?

Perfect for QA teams and beta testing

Because links carry a download counter, you can see how many testers actually grabbed the build. Add a password for client builds, and share both an Android APK and an iOS IPA from the same tool.
