qair

Screenshot

qair shows a QR code (2D barcode) on the terminal to send a file to your smartphone.

No more hassle: * No cables * No dedicated mobile app: The QR barcode is standard, so you do not need to install a dedicated app on you smartphone. You can use the barcode scanner of your camera app or browser, or any QR code reading app. * No bluetooth pairing * No signup, no account * No internet server. qair sends the file directly from your PC to your smartphone over HTTP over wifi. You do not even need internet. Your smartphone usually needs to be on the same wifi as your PC.

Receiving files is also supported: qair receive serves an HTML upload form.
