Flying Carpet 8.0.2

Version 8.0.2 fixes issues with the minimum SDK, which is now 26 (Android 8).

Flying Carpet 8.0.1

Version 8 adds sending folders from Android and iOS. Flying Carpet now skips a transfer if a file of the same name, location, and contents already exists on the receiving end. This allows folders to be mirrored and interrupted transfers to be quickly resumed. If a file of the same name, but different size/contents exists, the transfer will still take place, with the new file renamed. To send a folder from the Linux, macOS, and Windows versions, select Send and then drag a folder onto the window.

Desktop version 8.0.1 fixes a bug with path handling.

The Android version is available on the Play Store, or android_FlyingCarpet_8.0.2.apk is available in the release above if you would like to sideload. It supports Android 8/SDK 26 and up.

The iOS version is available here or search the App Store for "Flying Carpet File Transfer".

Send and receive files between Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows over ad hoc WiFi. No shared network or cell connection required, just two devices with WiFi chips in close range.

Version 7.0 has been rewritten in Rust and is compatible with the new Android and updated iOS versions.

Update 5/5/23: The macOS version has been signed with my Developer account and notarized by Apple so you should no longer have to control-click and select Open to run.
