Like Localshare but works over the internet?

Any recommendations appreciated

Thanks in advance

  • I wrote my own. I aimed for a different UX than most services. For my use case I have a few devices that I often share files between. So opening the tool on both devices was a bit annoying. Instead you select the file on the first device and you get a push notification on the other. Then the transfer is done over WebRTC (locally if possible). All communication is done end-to-end encrypted and over your browser's push service.

    • This is all i see

      • I thought Apple implemented push notifications? Or did they just say they would? Either way you can file the bug with them I think.

        Or wait until they allow you to install a browser that isn't dragging it's feet.

        • Yeah let me just file a bug report to apple for your app to even display. Ill get right on that
