Google nearby sharing finally works for pc

[Mcnumpty2323]

Finally a simple way to send files
From android devices to pc
And vice versa
It's still in beta but working fine for me
In both directions

It's been simple for years anyway [Iinsert file manager of choice that has SMB support] which is easy:



I tried out the Google version though, the app requires bluetooth to be available on the PC, whihc most PCs do not have, so unless you have Bluetooth on your desktop, then this won't work.

Luckily I have an
All singing and dancing motherboard lol
So built in Bluetooth
But hopefully as its still in beta
At some point Bluetooth might not be a requirement
Or an optional requirement
I guess it's required in case the android device isn't connected
To same network as the pc

syncthing is also an option.
