snapdrop VS LANDrop

Snapdrop.net is one of many examples of the uses for this API, using it with WebSocket API allows endpoints on the same local network to distribute files and send data between them. We can find the source code for the project here.

similar: I have been using https://snapdrop.net/ for a few years now.

Localsend for sharing files once in a while, snapdrop is an online alternative. Syncthing to sync folders between devices.

I can’t 100% vouch for it, but snapdrop.net seems like a good cross platform option here.

https://snapdrop.net/. Been using it for years for quick iOS > Windows transfers. Works great and unique names mean you know what device you’re sending to!

I use snapdrop.net. Doesn't necessarily need an app.

Would like to give a shout out to LANDrop (not affiliated) if the users are on the local network. I use it. It's very good at saturating the link bandwidth and traffic is guaranteed not to exit the firewall.

Looks like it is not. Maybe someone wants to maintain a fork.

iCloud Drives doesn’t break your file structure, you just drop the whole folders to the iCloud Drives, let it sync, and move them out of iCloud Drive to the internal storage on your iPad. Alternatively there’s plenty of other apps that can do local transfer, like https://landrop.app/. Use another cloud drive service like google drives. Or setup file server on your Mac with SMB and connect it on your iPad: https://support.apple.com/en-us/guide/mac-help/mh17131/10.13/mac/10.13

i just use LANDrop. its free and has no size limitations.

I've looked... but its seems there isn't an application based solution without requiring app indicator support which is something that eOS doesn't officially have. If you're comfortable modding eOS to have app indicator support you can then use LanDrop or use KDE Connect with an app indicator. You can also use sharedrop.io or snapdrop.net.
