hey. im working on a p2p file sharing app. its far from finished, but ive got enough to put it up for testing and demo purposes. it would be great if you would like to take a look and share feedback.
the aim is for this is to make it easier to transfer files between your own devices.
(my app-description combined with security-claims typically raises eyebrows, so id like to include a link to a related reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/cryptography/comments/1evdby4/is_this_a_secure_messaging_app)
some pending things to add:
- improved connection stability when over the internet.
- increased file size capacity (currently limited to around 50MB)
- add file-transfer progress indicator (useful for larger payloads).
feel free to reach out for clarity.

Not very peer-to-peer when I need to open your website everytime or run a web server on my phone.We already have Syncthing.Normal people don’t want to pay for a service or run a server.~~To spread privacy, we need more apps to replace them with Syncthing. Like an app for this: https://lemmy.world/post/28313324~~
This fails to include a libre software license text file, like AGPL. We do not control it, anti-libre software. Very dangerous.
They target an app we already control, Syncthing, to replace it with an app/service only they control.
With buzzwords, technology, and ‘open source’, we are distracted and derailed away from this.
Attacks like this will quickly get your friends leaving private apps, which you worked so hard to recommend, when you fail to show them how to check for software freedom.
In the subject of licences, I don’t really know much there.
Given that I’m trying to sell it on the play store I guess you don’t control it?
What would be the concerns around this? Loads of things are close source. I expect it helps to create something competitive.
