See exactly who's opened your shared files
WeTransfer logs a preview count on every transfer the moment it leaves your account. For telecom teams sharing technical documents, proposals, or network diagrams, enabling access control turns that count into a full record of who viewed your files and when.
Keep count of who views your transfer
When you're coordinating across carriers, vendors, or enterprise clients, knowing whether the right person has actually looked at what you sent matters. WeTransfer records preview activity on every transfer by default, so you have a live engagement signal without configuring anything. Need more than a number? Switching a transfer to tracked or restricted mode gives you a per-recipient log showing exactly who opened your files and at what time. Download tracking is available separately, letting you distinguish between someone who glanced at a spec sheet and someone who saved it. All of this sits in your transfer list, giving telecom teams a clear, organized picture of where their shared files stand.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Every transfer you send through WeTransfer shows a preview count in your account automatically, with no setup required. To see a named, timestamped log of which recipients viewed your files, enable access control on that transfer by switching it to tracked or restricted mode. This is especially useful for telecom workflows where you need to confirm that a client, contractor, or procurement contact has reviewed a proposal or technical document.
No. WeTransfer tracks previews separately from downloads, so you get engagement data even if no one saves a copy. Recipients can open PDFs, images, video, and audio directly in the browser, and each preview is counted. For telecom teams sharing network diagrams, RFP responses, or coverage maps, this means you can gauge whether materials were reviewed without relying on download activity at all.
View tracking records how many times a transfer was previewed in the browser, and with access control enabled, it shows you who previewed it and when. Download tracking is a separate setting you turn on explicitly, and it logs who downloaded the actual files. For telecom professionals, using both together tells you whether a vendor opened your spec sheet and whether they pulled a copy for their own records.
Recipients can preview PDFs, images, video files, and audio directly in the browser without downloading anything. That covers most common telecom document types: scanned contracts, proposal decks, presentation slides, and coverage imagery. Files like ZIP archives or CAD files are not previewable in-browser, but recipients can still download them, and those downloads appear in your tracking log if download tracking is enabled.
Yes. You can enable restricted access on any transfer, which limits viewing to a specific email address or a list of addresses you define. Only people on that list can open the files, and you get a per-recipient record of who previewed them and when. This is particularly useful for telecom teams sharing confidential bids, compliance documents, or infrastructure plans with a defined set of stakeholders.
