  • syncthing-android

    Wrapper of syncthing for Android.

  • I use Syncthing[0] for continuous file synchronization to/from my phone, its pretty nifty. Way more memory-heavy than something like this though.

  • snapdrop

    A Progressive Web App for local file sharing

  • FilePizza

    :pizza: Peer-to-peer file transfers in your browser

  • exiftool

    ExifTool meta information reader/writer

  • I 100% agree, Termux shows, what a useful tool a smartphone can be. Do I need an app to look at the EXIF of a photo? No, I just use Phil Harvey's excellent exiftool[1] in the shell. Resize or rotate an image? Or even a number of images? Imagemagick does the job. The power of the command line in your hand ;-)
