Elapp

Sending files, while not the most complicated thing in the world, can be frustrating to deal with if you don't have a proper solution to handle it. Sharing your files and documents with your contacts through messaging platforms is generally a problem-free experience, but some miffing issues can arise in some cases. For example, the automatic photo and video compression can be bothersome to some people.

If you're looking to share files with contacts in your proximity, you might want to consider giving Elapp a try: it's a nearby sharing app that focuses on minimalism and ease-of-use, allowing users to share their files with their contacts.

The app is predicated upon the principle of proximity sharing: simply put, users will have to be near one another, and have the program opened on their devices for everything to work. This works very well with mobile devices, but as this is the Windows version, it can work surprisingly well with laptops and desktops, too.

All you need to do is set up a name, and, provided they have the app opened, the users in your proximity will be able to see and share files with you. In turn, you can also see who's nearby and share files with them: photos, videos, songs, and documents are fair game.

When prompting to share a file with someone, they'll first have to accept it. Upon doing so, the transfer will start, and it's usually quick and worry-free. The recipient will then be able to open their file without a problem.

Aside from that, there's not much else to Elapp. It's a well-made app that keeps it simple, and everything works to good effect.
