- People transferring files across device platforms
- Worth noticing
- The site says a relay carries transfers when routers block direct connections, while the relay cannot read encrypted files.
Field notes
The transfer flow uses a one-time code—the page's example is “7-harbor-rocket”—then asks both devices to compare four words before connecting. It says devices attempt a direct route first and fall back to an encrypted relay when routers or firewalls interfere; the relay can see IP address and code number, but not filenames or file contents, according to the site. Android beta and Linux are marked done, while the independent audit remains on the roadmap.
