Troubleshooting an issue with the SwissTransfer mobile app
This guide explains how to resolve the error message “Your device has been detected as insecure” encountered on the SwissTransfer mobile app (iOS / Android).
As a security measure, this message only blocks the creation of new transfers from the mobile app. Receiving, opening, and downloading received files remain fully accessible.
Why is this message appearing?
By default, SwissTransfer does not require the creation of a user account. To prevent abuse, fraudulent automated sending, and spam, the application relies on the official integrity mechanisms of Apple and Google (Play Integrity / DeviceCheck). If these services cannot certify the authenticity and integrity of your device, the sending of transfers is temporarily suspended.
How to bypass or resolve this limitation?
- Connect via a kSuite account (the quickest solution):if you log in to the SwissTransfer application with a kSuite account, the device integrity check is bypassed, and the limitation no longer applies.
- Use the web version: you can freely send files directly from the www.swisstransfer.com website, using the web browser on your mobile device or computer.
- Check and update your device:
- Make sure your device is not rooted or jailbroken and that no deep system modifications are active.
- Check that the operating system and official system services (such as Google Play Services on Android) are up to date and that a valid account is associated with them.
- Check the stability of your network connection and try again.
