Abstract
A method is provided for sharing a file. A first mobile device can generate a link and the link can enable a second mobile device to send a request to a permission server to access a file from a remote server. The permission server can determine a unique identifier of the second mobile device is associated with sufficient file sharing privileges to receive the file from the remote server. Additionally, the permission server can enable the second mobile device to download the file from the remote server, upon determining that the unique identifier is associated with sufficient file sharing privileges. Once the second mobile device with sufficient file sharing privileges downloads the file from the remote server, the first mobile device can receive a confirmation.
