Moving from Pastebin to AChat
Paste text and share the link, with a password and burn-after-read option. Uploading files is a PRO feature. Choose Pastebin for a long piece of text that should stay at one address for months. Choose AChat if you need files too, or a reply from the other side.

How to move across
- Open AChat on the machine that has what you need and choose Create room. No account or phone number.
- Set a password if the room shouldn't be open to anyone with the link (passwords and encryption).
- Send your message or file, then open the room's link on the other machine and take it (file sharing).
- Delete what you sent, or let it expire (anonymous rooms). The room stays open for replies until then.

| Send both text and files | Yes | Partly (their page) |
| Protect it with a password | Yes | Yes (their page) |
| The other side can reply | Yes | Not stated on the pages we checked |
Messages in an anonymous room are deleted after a set number of days, unless someone with an account keeps the room. In a room with no password, anyone with the link can read them. Anonymous here means no account, not invisible.
