Somewhat relevant, I have a list of (mostly browser based + few no-setup cli) tools [1] to send files from A to B. I keep sharing this list here to fish more tools whenever something like this comes up.

  One limitation of iOS is the inability to use Bluetooth to transfer an image/video file to a Bluetooth receiver such as Windows. The Apple documentation requires a wired connection. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/120267 https://support.apple.com/en-ca/120267 If LocalSend is running on iOS and Windows does LocalSend have the ability to send photos?

    It should work, though I haven't actually tried it. That's not a limitation of iOS, just Apple's own syncing app/protocol. LocalSend is basically an http client/server with network device discovery, as far as I know.

Recently there is this project that caught my attention. The project claim to support multi different protocol, on various web browser(even IE6), and extremely easy to setup(single python file). I have not given it a try, just want to share. https://github.com/9001/copyparty https://github.com/9001/copyparty
