Still seems to be present on my phone.

I love that little app. It's so dang useful to be able to wirelessly copy files from my pc to my phone and vice versa. I previously tried a sftp client on android (terminus?) to no avail.

Edit: I installed via the play store, I see many folks have installed it via fdroid but I'm not sure why.

I found file transfer with KDEConnect unreliable and often ended up with corrupted copies. Now I use Syncthing instead and just permanently share a directory; when I want to share a file I just drop it in there and a few seconds later it is on all the other devices even if they are not in the same network segment.

Little known feature of tailscale, it let's you send files to all your devices. Has to be explicitly enabled on certain platforms and you'd never know it existed without reading the docs.

It's called Taildrop. https://tailscale.com/kb/1106/taildrop/

Still can't create a temporary ad hoc wireless network to transfer files directly between devices. If they did that it would be on par with airdrop

I use the HTTP server built into Mixplorer (the best file manager I've ever used). It can be added as a Quick Settings toggle.
