See who's actually looking at your design files
Sending designs to a client, creative director, or collaborator is only half the job. WeTransfer shows you when each person has previewed your files in the browser and when they have downloaded them, so you know exactly where your work has landed and who still needs a nudge.
Keep count of who views your transfer
Designers sharing work for review or approval need more than a confirmation that a link was delivered. WeTransfer lets recipients open design files, images, and PDFs directly in the browser without downloading first, and that preview activity is recorded in your Transfers panel as a distinct event separate from any full download. Enabling download tracking ties every access to a verified email address and a timestamp, giving you a clear, named picture of who engaged with each file you sent. If a presentation, brand deck, or asset pack is meant only for specific eyes, you can restrict access to a defined list of email addresses so anyone outside it cannot reach the files. Design files are delivered exactly as uploaded, with no compression, no re-encoding, and no changes to resolution or color fidelity.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. WeTransfer records browser previews and downloads as separate events in your Transfers panel, so you can see whether a recipient opened your files for a quick look or pulled them down in full. This distinction is useful when you want to know if a client has actually engaged with a proposal or brand deliverable before your follow-up call. Supported formats for in-browser preview include JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PSD, and PDF, among others.
When sending a transfer, enable download tracking in the transfer settings panel. Once active, every access event is logged with the recipient's verified email address and a timestamp, visible from the transfer's detail page. For design deliveries going to multiple stakeholders, such as a client, an agency contact, and a print supplier, you can see each person's activity individually so you know exactly where attention has and has not landed.
You can restrict access to a named list of email addresses when setting up your transfer. Anyone who opens the link must verify their email, and access is only granted if they appear on your list. This is useful for sharing final brand assets, unreleased campaign visuals, or confidential pitch decks where the audience needs to stay controlled.
No. WeTransfer delivers every file exactly as you uploaded it, with no compression, no re-encoding, and no changes to resolution or color data. High-resolution mockups, RAW images, layered PSD files, and print-ready PDFs all arrive with their original fidelity intact. The in-browser preview displays at a slightly lower resolution to speed up loading, but the file recipients download is always the original.
No account is needed to preview or download a transfer. Recipients can open your design files, review them in the browser, and download them without signing up for anything. If you have enabled access tracking or restricted access, they will need to verify their email address, but that is a quick one-step process and does not require creating an account.
