tiShare

tiShare aims to help users transfer files between various terminals easier. This means that you won't have to find complex ways of sending big files, uploading them to who knows what site, and wasting precious time with atrocious bandwidth.

The app itself was created to allow sharing between different platforms, whether we're talking about Linux, Android, or Windows. While there is still a lot to do until the app has been fully developed, the start looks promising.

Now, the rules behind the functionality of the app are based on the File Transfer Protocol or FTP for short. This means that you will need to connect to another terminal running the same app before transferring any files. That's an easy job to do.

Make sure all your needed devices are connected to the same network and have an IP assigned. Now, each particular device with the app running will receive a unique ID.

The app is divided into two particular areas. The one on the left deals with the files you want to transfer, while the smaller right pane will show devices that you have either connected to or can if need be.

To fill the right pane with devices, click on the scan button situated above the Devices area. The list will be populated with terminals on that network. You will recognize them by the aforementioned unique ID.

Once the right device pops up on the list, click on it. The connection will then be established and you are free to start dragging and dropping files in the left area of the window. Keep in mind that the transfer will be completed, once you have checked the files that were added previously.

For example, importing a list of folders won't mean they are instantly transferred. You'll have to sift once more through them, checking only the ones you want to transfer.

While in terms of settings there's not much to discuss, the only possible change being that of the unique ID, if there is some sort of network conflict with them, the app functions well, and is useful for those who run as far as possible from wired data transfers. tiShare is an interesting start to a multi-platform transfer program.
