Arc
A cross-platform file transfer app designed for speed and simplicity.
Most cross-platform file transfer tools share the same issues.
Nobody is designing for workflows and simplicity.
Network Fragility
Most tools do not adapt around network conditions. They expect users to create ideal ones.
Redundant Steps
Expect manual sender/receiver selection, force hotspot hosting. Why was this not automated?
Poor Ad-Infested UX
Great UX involves an unskippable ad before you send a single image. Right?
Arc is a cross-platform file transfer tool.

Main product flow. The app automatically handles sender/receiver selection and detects devices on the same account. The result was a file transfer process that feels as simple as sending a message. Every 5-star review for the product mentions the core flow’s design as their favourite part of the product.
Onboarding flow. Most users downloaded Arc to solve an immediate problem — transfer a file now. The onboarding was a clear, guided process through a file transfer to the two primary use cases — transfer to a friend, or transfer to your own device. Placing the paywall and review prompt directly after the onboarding drastically increased the number of premium upgrades and 5-star reviews for the app. Desktop flow truncated for brevity.
