Any web site that lets you share files with people like xender ?

I remember there being apps like xender, easy share etc. which lets you share files by one person activating hotspot and the other wifi you just have to have both party close to each other and they use no data . But they are all closed source and probably spyware and its too much of a hassle to get others to download a file sharing app from fdroid when you need to share big files so is there any website or web app which is private (completely offline after loading, is foss etc.). It also has to work on android and have good enough speed .

pedroapero,

Sharik is very nice on smartphone: f-droid.org/packages/dev.marchello.sharik/No need to install anything on the receiver side; handles Wifi hotshot itself.

www.sharedrop.io

there is also another one im thinking of but it was a year ago and i cant remember the name ugh

edit: found it

blaze.vercel.app

just be aware that even though it’s open source, the code is not verifiable in web-app form

nossaquesapao,

Something like local send, maybe?

Perhaps sharedrop would be best suited for you?

Legend,

No vpn ? Why does it use data ?

nossaquesapao,

Sorry, I don’t ubderstand your question. As far as I know, sharedrop works in the local network, doesn’t it?

refalo,

I think they’re asking about the text on the website that says “not compatible with VPNs” which I think is a reference to an Android system limitation where you simply must turn off an existing VPN connection to use the app merely because it interferes with the app becoming its own localhost VPN to get around android networking limitations.

On one end its a browser. In the other end its a cross platform app

Legend, (edited )

There is an app on fdroid with that name.

Yes its cross platform

refalo,

Why not just use the built-in bluetooth file sharing?

Legend,

The files are really big .

refalo,

BT4.0 can send files at 200mbps, is that not fast enough?
