Don't have a flash drive? Don't have access to a wireless network? Need to move a file larger than 2GB between different filesystems but don't want to set up a file share? Try it out!

Doesn't work at all. Shows error messages. No operating instructions provided by the developer. Tried every combination ( turning on/off wifi, hotspot on one & both devices, pairing both devices via wifi-direct etc) but none were successful. Just unable to figure out why it won't transfer. Nokia G21 Android 13 (both devices).

Devices should have WiFi on but you don't need to start a hotspot manually or pair via WiFi Direct. Please feel free to report the errors you see at https://github.com/spieglt/FlyingCarpet/issues/new. Edit: I retested Android-to-Android transfers and it's working, so I'll need to see logs to be able to help.
