Uploading files and folders

Drag-and-drop on web, share-extension on iOS, and what's supported.

3 min readUpdated May 22, 2026

On the web

  1. Drag any file or folder onto the dashboard.
  2. Or click Upload at the top right and pick from your device.
  3. Folders preserve their structure — sub-folders come along automatically.

On iOS

Three ways to get files into VirtualDrive on iOS:

  • Files app: tap-and-hold a file in iOS Files, then Move → VirtualDrive.
  • Share sheet: in any app (Photos, Mail, Safari…) tap the share icon → VirtualDrive.
  • Camera Backup: enable it once and new photos & videos sync automatically.

What file types are supported?

All of them. We don't filter by type — upload PDFs, RAW photos, ZIP archives, Logic Pro projects, anything. Previews are available for common formats (images, video, audio, PDF, Word, Excel, plain text, code).

Single-file upload limit: 500 MB on Free, 5 GB on Pro and Ultra — the same on web, iOS, and Android. On iOS, uploads run in the background and keep going even if the app is closed mid-upload.
