What's the best way to send a video to a client's phone?
The best way to send a video to a client's phone is a link that opens in the browser and streams immediately, with no app to install and no account to create.
The best way to send a video to a client's phone is a link that opens in the browser and streams immediately, with no app to install and no account to create. Most clients open a delivery on their phone first, often within minutes of receiving it, so that first tap decides how the work lands.
Sending the file directly is the wrong move. Messaging apps recompress video heavily, AirDrop only works between nearby Apple devices, and a raw file dropped into a cloud folder produces a low-quality preview or a "can't preview" message on mobile.
A mobile-optimised gallery adapts the stream to the phone's screen and connection so playback starts fast and stays smooth. The full-resolution download is still there for when the client sits down at a computer.
DLVRD galleries are built mobile-first: tap the link, the film plays, the branding is yours, and the same link works later on a laptop for the download.
