share a file

How can a 1 gig file be sent.

Can a php uploader handle a 1 gig file

I dont want to use google drive or drop box because I need to sign up and person receiving needs to sign up.

File being shared between two people so I dont want to set up a torrent.

All the PHP installs I am aware of limit uploads to much smaller file sizes.  An unmodified install starts at 2 MB.

An unmodified install starts at 2 MB
So if I do shared hosting then I can not modify php.ini file
Would I need dedicated or vps hosting?

Is there a php command to modify upload size limit?

for me; php seems easiest if I set file size limits with php code on my shared hosting plan

wetransfer is also easy but requires me to type my email
