The recent work I've been doing has required a lot of sharing files between testing devices (and my Mac). AirDrop should be the ideal tool for this but I've recently found it to be unreliable.

Instead I've been using LocalSend which is an open-source AirDrop alternative and it's been working fantastically. The only real downside is that you have to open the app on both sides for the share to complete, but it has been 100% reliable so that’s a tradeoff I'll happily make.

@_Davidsmith I’ve installed Snapdrop on my raspberry pi which is also less convenient than AirDrop from a pure UX perspective, but because it is web-based I can share files between all kinds of devices, e.g. train ticket PDFs for work trips from my work machine to my iPhone.
