An Android file transfer app modeled after SHAREit (茄子快传), supporting device-to-device transfers over a custom TCP/UDP socket protocol and browser-based transfers via an embedded mini HTTP server. Written in Java, it uses Wi-Fi hotspot to create a LAN between sender and receiver.

Use cases

• transfer files between two android phones over wifi
• send files from phone to pc browser without installing an app
• shareit alternative open source
• learn how to implement socket-based file transfer on android
• transfer files over local network with thumbnails
• android wifi hotspot file sharing app

When to choose

• you need offline LAN file transfer between Android devices without internet
• you want to study a working example of custom socket protocols and embedded HTTP servers on Android
• you want browser-based file receiving without installing anything on the receiver

When to avoid

• you need a maintained, production-ready app - the project has had no releases since 2017
• you need iOS or cross-platform support - it is Android-only
• you need encrypted or secure transfers - no security features are described
