Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦Hey <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/InfoSec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InfoSec</a>, anyone with opionons <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/LocalSend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalSend</a>? 👀 <a href="https://localsend.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://localsend.org/</a>Specifically, I am interested in anyone with informed opinions on how secure it is. Has it been audited?

zahntronAs part of my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mactolinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mactolinux</a> transition I came across a super handy alternative to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/airdrop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#airdrop</a> called <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/localsend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localsend</a> it's cross platform and nearly as seamless as that oh so convenient feature in the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#apple</a> ecosystem.

CliffMy review of the LocalSend app has been published on the SeerOfSouls blog!<a href="https://www.seerofsouls.com/localsend-a-fast-secure-way-to-transfer-files-between-devices/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.seerofsouls.com/localsend-a-fast-secure-way-to-transfer-files-between-devices/</a>This post was originally published on the AllThingsTech.social blog, but since that blog is no longer available, I wanted to publish it on SeerOfSouls so that it's still accessible to others.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/LocalSend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalSend</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Apps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Apps</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MacOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MacOS</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/iOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iOS</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Android</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Blog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blog</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Blogger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blogger</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Blogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blogging</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Reviews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Reviews</a>

voltooidverledentijdFetch Apple iPhone photos to your Linux computer (1)Let’s imagine you have a visitor which is not very familiar with computers and phones but wants to share their 1 Gigabytes of photos with you on their Apple iPhone.You probably know that until recently Apple was about incompatible as possible when it comes to software and hardware. For example, if you work in an office and your iPhone battery is almost empty then in the last few decades none of the Android phone chargers would rescue you. In the future Apple will iirc have to adjust and allow USB-C connections.In this blog post I will focus on LocalSend because I believe it is an elegant solutionfor all kind of operating systems and it is not super difficult.For example, with Linux you can also go for the tools of libimobiledevice projectbut this is not only more difficult but it can be very confusing. Because if you use libimobiledevice to mount the iPhone and you think you will quickly copy photos across and then delete a few hundreds photos via the mount point you will be in for a surprise.libimobiledevice can only copy from the phone and it cannot delete photos from the phone although it will not complain about the latter.So, without further ado and without further delays let’s check out the wonderful LocalSend application :<ol><li>Install <a href="https://localsend.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LocalSend</a> on the phone and on your Linux computer.</li><li>Make sure you are on the same WiFi network without client isolation on (this can be the case if you have a Guest WiFi network option).</li><li>On your Linux laptop open port 53317 for incoming traffic.</li><li>Start the LocalSend app on both phone and your Linux computer.</li><li>At the Linux computer click the Receive button</li><li>On the phone select which images you’d like to send.</li><li>On the Linux computer when the phone has been discovered, click on the nickname of the phone to receive the photos which in my case were downloaded in the ~/Downloads folder.</li></ol>Alternatives ? KDEConnect or the GNOME counterpart of KDEConnect is also available for Linux, Android, Apple iOS and more.Part 2 will be about how to convert the photos from HEIC to png or jpg format.<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://voltooidverledentijd.noblogs.org/post/tag/kdeconnect/" target="_blank">#KDEConnect</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://voltooidverledentijd.noblogs.org/post/tag/linux/" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://voltooidverledentijd.noblogs.org/post/tag/localsend/" target="_blank">#LocalSend</a>

Jan Vlug<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LocalSend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalSend</a> is a really cool app to share files between devices on your local network.Works for most operating systems.It is Free and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> Software (<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a>).Easy to install, easy to use.<a href="https://localsend.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://localsend.org/</a>

Jason DavisRecently discovered <a href="https://jasondavis.net/tags/LocalSend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalSend</a> , cross platform nearby file sharing ❤<a href="https://localsend.org/download" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://localsend.org/download</a>

gyorb<a href="https://mastodon.uy/@lufertec" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@lufertec</a> Syncthing should work if is installed and configured for local only discovery on all of the devices so when they connect to the same network (might work with the hotspot from your device) files could be synced between them. Another app which cames to my mind is <a href="https://localsend.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://localsend.org/</a> it is not for file synchronization but for sending files from one device to another on the same network. I did not use this setup with a mobile hotspot. Both of these tools can work in a peer to peer way without any cerntral server. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/syncthing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#syncthing</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SyncThingAndroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SyncThingAndroid</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/localsend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localsend</a>

Sean DavisI really cannot recommend <a href="https://floss.social/tags/localsend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localsend</a> enough. This app is perfect for sending files and text from one device to another.<a href="https://localsend.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://localsend.org/</a>I have a hardware project that uses Android and is a pain to type or browse on. With LocalSend, those annoyances can be resolved with my PC and sent over the network, no configuration needed.
