This app comes from Flathub and has not been tested with cpak yet. cpak checks it against the Flathub signing key and runs it in its own sandbox, without Flatpak on the system, but some features may not work. How Flathub apps work in cpak

Share is a bidirectional file sharing application that works both ways — send files to others or receive files from them. It offers both a graphical interface (GTK) and a terminal-based CLI mode.

Features:

  • Bidirectional file transfer - both send and receive files
  • No additional software required - just a QR code scanner and web browser
  • Receive Mode - let others upload files directly to your device
  • Directory uploads - upload/download entire folder structures
  • Multiple file uploads - batch upload many files at once
  • Share data from the clipboard, automatically detect if the clipboard contains an image, or a text, note that pasting files will only send paths as text (if the app doesn't have read permission), so its better to drop them instead
  • CLI mode — run entirely from the terminal without a graphical interface, useful over SSH or on headless systems

How it works:

  • Creates a temporary HTTP server on your local network
  • Generates QR codes for both sharing and receiving
  • Sharing Mode: Others scan to download your files
  • Receive Mode: Others scan to upload files to you via web interface
  • All transfers happen locally over your network - no internet required

Perfect for quick file transfers between devices, mobile-to-desktop uploads, collaborative work, or any situation where you need wireless file transfer without cloud services.
