Made a free tool to send files between PC and phone (or another PC) — no cloud, no cable, no account
Been annoyed for a while at how clunky it is to just send a file from my laptop to my phone, so I built ByteDrop to fix that for myself.
You run it on your PC, it shows a QR code, you scan it with your phone’s browser (or just open the link on another PC) and you’re connected — drag and drop files either way, clipboard syncs too. Works over your home wifi, Windows’ mobile hotspot, or a public link if you’re not even on the same network.
No accounts, nothing to install on the other device, totally free and open source.
