It need not be communicated over the phone. Say you want to move a file from desktop to your mobile. Or transfer quickly from your iOS phone to your friends Android one. This will help in those cases but is limited by the randomly generated url which you will have to pain stackingly type. I don't see how a sufficiently long randomly generated string with memorable words (/jack/never/securely/farted/sky/fall/what/ever) is less secure than randomly generated token like this.

I can message my wife from my phone to her phone, but I can't message myself from my phone to my PC. At least, with most messaging programs.
