Transfer files with ease over a network.
QRServ takes any selected files on your device and makes them available through its own HTTP server at an unused port number. The selected files can then be downloaded via web browser on another device and/or software that allows file downloads over HTTP from QR codes.
Devices involved would need to be on the same network (i.e. access point, tethering [no mobile data required], VPN [with a supported configuration]).

-- Tap the QR code to show the URL in a tooltip
-- Press and hold on the QR code to copy full URL to clipboard

- Direct Access Mode

-- To use this feature on Android 11 or later, use the GitHub version (link is in-app under the 'about' dialog and later on in the description) -- please note that the Play Store version needs to be uninstalled first as it would be signed using a different certificate
-- Large files? Use direct access mode to use direct access to internal storage as to avoid attempting to copy the selection into app cache
