Pretty cool, the advantage over LocalSend is likely, that no Wifi network is needed.
(With localsend this can be circumvented by creating a hotspot on one device and using that in the other. And Localsend has a well made Flatpak)
Thanks for sharing. I didn't realize that localsend also works on iOS, but I guess the more the merrier for open source quality and choice development.
Localsend works reliably via wifi, not sure about this ad hoc wifi, no idea how that works
Ad Hoc is like the real AirDrop. It creates a Network between the two devices that gets disconnected afterwords. The Advantage is that you dont need wifi or to activate a hotspot.
I never heard of that, is this a thing present on AOSP and Linux?
Ad-hoc wifi networks are old, they just aren't usually used for much
This seems great, i use localsend but if this adds the option to send from the share sheet I’ll switch over. I just wish the name and domain weren’t so bad and long
What do you guys use this for?
Besides bend over backwards to make apple "just work" with all the relatives?
If only this also could be compatible with the Apple AirDrop, so we Linux users can receive files from Apple devices or send files from non-Apple to Apple without having to install something on the Apple device.
has anyone had any experience with this one? good, bad, other?
I couldnt get it to work between macOS and Android. It's also a bit complicated to use, you need to enter a auto generated password and ssid. Not exactly the easy solution I was hoping it to be...
