Single page file transfer using QR Codes and a browser. Sending device loads a file into the page, gets chunked. Receiver gets all the chunks through a camera, tosses lightly and reassembles, CRC to garnish. Designed to push data from an old phone that had broken comms after it took a swimming lesson in a coffee mug, it's been quite handy.
- pajamasam 5mo agoInteresting idea! A demo video would be great :)
- HanClinto 5mo agoIf the phone had broken comms, how did you get the code onto the phone to run?
- Chant-I-CRW 5mo agoIn ye olden days we used cables to sync all of our apps and data to our phones.
- wongarsu 5mo agoBut why not move the data over that cable? Some kind of iOS thing that made that more complicated than pushing an app to the phone?
- rmunn 5mo agoNot OP, but I'm guessing by running the code on itself, i.e. turning the code into a QR code (or a series of them), then scanning those QR codes on the phone and reassembling them using a text-editing app on the phone.

- harkaniemi 5mo agoThis is wild. I made an identical program 24 hours ago. Mine just transfers text files
- harkaniemi 5mo agoOkei, I tested yours and it works. I would change one thing: You could start receiving chunks at any point. I had total chunk amount and chunk order in every chunk, so you can start receiving at any point.
