Because Bluetooth is sooooo slow yawn
Edit: And I already tried OTG. Its slow as fuck because of the USB 2.0 bottleneck makes it take 3 hours whereas Quickshare would’ve taken like, idk maybe 15 minutes or less. Ironically wireless is faster, but I also need it to work for non-certified / custom roms.
LocalSend maybe. (Not sure about the custom ROM part)
Hmm, this one seems like you need to both be connected to the same wifi. Not exactly a Quickshare replacement. I was thinking WifiDirect
Is this really a showstopper? You could use a hotspot.
Just dropping https://pairdrop.net/ here. Works on the same network or via the internet. There is an app, but it would also work in the browser on literally any device.
So the way hotspots work, is if you want to transfer (without going through the internet) files between device A and device B, you need a device C to host the hotspot, then have A, B connect to it. If you use A to host the hotspot, then B connects to A’s hotspot, A still wouldn’t be “on the same local network” as B. Its weird.
i usually use total commander wifi send, copyparty or scp on termux
How about PairDrop?
It’s even selfhostable!
PairDrop
Deez nutz
you can try out copyparty: https://github.com/9001/copyparty
not exactly a drop in replacement, but it works on nearly every device.I’ve had a good experience with localsend between iOS/macOS/Linux desktop, but it’s overall platform agnostic and natively built for everything.
