MediaFire has 43 million registered users and attracted 1.3 billion unique visitors to its domains in 2012. It allows users to upload, download, view, and organize files with ease and simplicity using MediaFire for Android, BlackBerry, Windows, iPhone, or iPad. MediaFire supports a variety of file formats through its web-based file viewer, including image files, video files, text files, and markup/code.

However, MediaFire lacks strong security measures for files and similar cloud storage services offer better features and security.
