Receive hub
Last updated: 28 Jun 2026
App bar Receive—routes to Inbox after unlock.
Who this is for
Recipients opening QR codes, pasted links, share files, or audio handoffs—and anyone returning to bookmarkable Receive tabs.
What you need
| Tier | Free |
| Vault state | Unlocked for immediate import; locked OK for stashed ?m= |
| Network | Offline OK after first app load; hosted link fetch needs network |
| Feature toggle | Sound tab requires Sound handoff; non-NT² files to local vault need Receive to local vault |
Hub routes
| Tab | URL | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| QR code (default) | https://se.nt2.me/receive | Scanning camera or uploaded QR images |
| Link | https://se.nt2.me/receive/link | Pasting https://se.nt2.me/?m=… or inbox URLs |
| File | https://se.nt2.me/receive/file | Choosing .nt2share, backup, recovery, or legacy files |
| Sound | https://se.nt2.me/receive/sound | Listening for ultrasonic send (quiet room) |
Tabs are bookmarkable path segments—browser Back/Forward switches tabs correctly.
Steps
QR tab (default)
- Open Receive from the app bar.
- Allow camera access if prompted; point at the sender's QR.
- NT² classifies the payload—contact invite, inbox wire, or share open—and routes after unlock if needed.
Link tab
- Go to
https://se.nt2.me/receive/link. - Paste the full URL (placeholder shows
https://se.nt2.me/?m=…) or use Paste from clipboard. - Tap Open. Valid wires add to Inbox or auto-apply contact profile updates.
File tab
- Go to
https://se.nt2.me/receive/file. - Select a file—supported NT² artifacts include
.nt2share,.nt2backup,.nt2recovery,.nt2legacy. .nt2share→ decrypt with share passphrase → Inbox or import flow..nt2backup/.nt2recovery→ routed to backup or recovery import (not Inbox).- Send to a vault on this device (when enabled)—deliver arbitrary files to another local vault's Inbox.
Sound tab (optional)
- Go to
https://se.nt2.me/receive/soundwhen Sound handoff is enabled. - Tap Start listening; hold devices within ~30 cm in a quiet place.
- On success, the message follows the same routing as QR/link. On failure, try QR or Link tabs.
After import
Open Inbox to Accept or Decline asset shares. Enter the sender's share passphrase when prompted—not your master password.
Tips and common mistakes
?m=links belong at the vault root—not on nt2.me marketing pages. Story and integrator notes: Sent to me.- Receive ≠ Inbox—Receive is the front door; Inbox is where pending items wait for your decision.
- Invalid tab paths (e.g.
/receive/nfc) redirect silently to/receive. - PWA file handlers open
.nt2sharedirectly at/receive/file. - Share passphrase missing or wrong → decrypt fails; contact the sender.
