About this app

Wormhole William is an end-to-end encrypted file transfer app that uses the Magic Wormhole secure file transfer protocol.

With Wormhole William you can send and receive files between your phone and a computer or another phone by simply sharing a short, one time passcode.

Wormhole William is an open source. You can find the source code here: https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william-mobile.

Ratings and reviews

It allows to sent single file only. It would be nice to allow sending more or a folder.

The app is okay, equally disfunctional as the Wormhole protocol: it won't take multiple files, it won't resume, it's so dumb it can't take spaces instead of dashes as sepparator, because somehow this is MS DOS in 1989 and the space messes up the parameters. A solution would be to use Croc. Same size, better written.

Awesome! I've been looking for something like this. It makes it so easy to transfer long links like Zoom meeting links between devices. Thanks a lot.
