pyicloud VS warpinator

How comfortable are you with Python? You could cook something up using the pyicloud library.

Back in Anki, when Anki is loaded we could use a custom addon to load in the db file from icloud, check to see if the cards have been added and add those that have not been added. Then set them as "added" so we can filter them the next time.

I’ve found a python library called pyiCloud that works with some of the iCloud web services, but doesn’t include activating Downtime. I played around with it a bit and tried to guess the screen time / downtime url’s but didn’t have any luck.

Someone has reverse engineered the API and created a python library for using it, but there is a big gap between that and something that's easy for end-users.

A dev could use the find my network, either by; - hooking directly to it (not sure how hard would that be) - using a server which would ping the AirPods location and iPhone location (any type of server would work and you could use pyiCloud to interact with iCloud itself, get the location of both devices and use some fancy euclidian equations to get the distance between both devices to see how far is one from the other

I'm not saying run off and merge a major update into React; You can start much smaller than that. I started by writing small documentation fixes (1, 2, 3), and eventually added new functionality to libraries that I've used in some side projects (1).

Well, I couldn't find any reliable ones. So I decided to make one - Dockerized iCloud Drive. By the way, pyiCloud is awesome! 😎

There are a few ways to interface with apples iCloud reminders, all of which are terrible, however the most promising option I have found is Pyicloud (GitHub) which is a python module that allows your to interface with many applications in your iCloud account, awesome, right?

The ultimate goal here is to display my "reminders" which are tied to my iCloud account, and get those in python so I can display them on an external device in real time. I can see there is the ability to do this or atleast interact with the reminders in some way in : "pyicloud/pyicloud/services/reminders.py /" directory on GitHub, however after trying many different combinations of running the code in that directory in multiple different ways, I'm back to square 1 not really understanding how to utilize this code to return the values I want (or return anything really). Any insight here at all?

Warpinator

I don't know. After discovering PairDrop too, thanks to comments here, I've been testing it out to see if it could replace Warpinator [1] as a means to send files & directories between my PC and my Android phone when I'm at home.

First impression has been quite disappointing... I installed the PWA to my phone's home screen. Then opened up and paired with my PC as trusted device. Tried to send a PDF file from PC to phone, a dialog shows up with

File Received. PC has sent: file.pdf. Close/Download.

Upon clicking Download, Firefox (which is configured in Android as the default web browser) opens up, on the Homepage tab. Nothing else happens, and the file isn't downloaded. So I'm left pretty much confused about what should have happened vs. what did actually happen.

Good thing about Warpinator (and something I use a lot) is that you can enable accepting files without confirmation, and then you can drag & drop a whole folder to have it appear on the other device as-is. Something extremely useful but that I doubt web apps can achieve.

They have linked the unofficial version in their GitHub repo https://github.com/linuxmint/warpinator

You can then use Syncthing or Warpinator alongside it to sync them to other devices.

Other than those you mentioned, there is Warpinator. It works flawlessly for me. You need to create a hotspot manually if there is no internet.
