Sending video and voice notes

Chat apps cap what you can attach. KeepChats sends the file as a playable card inside the conversation instead, so the person on the other end sees a normal message and installs nothing.

Sending a video

Open the app, choose the video from your library or record one, and send. The app compresses it to fit your plan limit while keeping it watchable, uploads it, and gives you a link to paste into the conversation. Paste it and it renders as a playable card.

Recording a voice note

Hold to record, release to stop, and review before sending. Voice notes are small, so they upload almost instantly even on a poor connection.

What the recipient sees

A normal message with a preview and a play control. They do not need KeepChats, an account, or any app. Nothing identifies what you used to send it beyond the link itself.

Expiry

You choose how long the link stays live when you create it. After that it stops resolving and the file is removed. If you want something to last, keep a copy on your own device as well — a share link is for delivering something, not for storing it.

Why was my video compressed?+

To fit the maximum size on your plan. The app picks the highest quality that fits rather than a fixed setting, so a short clip is barely touched.

Can I send a file that is not video or audio?+

Yes — documents and archives work the same way and arrive as a download card.

Can I delete something after sending it?+

Yes. Revoke the link from your shares and it stops resolving immediately. Anyone who already downloaded it keeps their copy — that is true of anything sent anywhere.
