When someone transfers a video to you, it waits for your answer instead of arriving automatically. Accepting makes you the owner — the video becomes yours to keep, organize, and share. This is not the same as a video shared with you, which is only borrowed and expires on its own.
Where transfers wait for you
Pending transfers appear on your Video Transfers page, reachable from the transfer email or your notifications. Each one shows the video, who sent it, and Accept / Decline buttons. Have several at once? Accept all and Decline all clear the whole list in one action.
Accept or decline
Accept takes ownership: the video moves into your library and counts against your storage from then on. Decline leaves it with the sender. Unlike hiding a video shared with you, declining is an explicit answer — the transfer is closed and the video does not stay reachable afterwards.
What you own after accepting
An accepted video is fully yours: an independent video you own, not a borrowed share that lapses. If you keep auto-share rules, the accept screen offers to also apply your share rules to videos you accept, so a video of your horse can arrive already shared with your trainer. Leave that option off for a transfer you'd rather handle by hand.
Share it onward
Right after you accept, if you have shared this horse or rider with someone before, a line offers to send the new video to them in one tap — Share again. First time for this horse? Choose recipients opens the video so you can pick. Dismiss the line with ✕, or use Turn off suggestions to stop these suggestions everywhere (you can switch them back on in Settings).
