I've ditched AirDrop for LocalSend, which is universally cross-platform (iOS, macOS, Linux, Android) and works very well. It's not a complete substitute, it doesn't work in the case of completely casual sharing between devices that are not connected to a shared WiFi network, however.
- chasil 11mo agoI did not know that LocalSend had been ported to iOS and MacOS. I had previously used the built-in webserver for transfers from Android to Apple. I do have much greater luck with LocalSend transfers when I tether them to my own WiFi prior to transfer.
- fmajid 11mo agoYes. The only caveat is that since LocalSend isn't blessed by Apple, it isn't automatically invoked and you have to start it manually to receive.
