📁 Common File Types & Tips
| File Type | Tips |
|---|---|
| APK Files | • Only share if you have rights to do so • Not cross-compatible between Android/iOS • Always verify source (security risk if from unknown developers) |

🔐 Permissions Required (Why They’re Needed)

- ✅ Location Access – For Wi-Fi Direct (via Google’s Nearby API); Bluetooth may be used for discovery
- ✅ Camera – To scan QR codes for fast receiving
- ✅ Read Contacts – Optional – for sharing files via contact list
⚠️ Note: These permissions are standard for secure, seamless transfers. Always review app privacy policy.
🛠️ Pro Tips
- No Internet? No Problem. Use Wi-Fi Direct mode — ideal for sharing large files in offices, classrooms, or remote areas.
- Avoid APK abuse. Only share apps you own or have permission to distribute.
- Use a file manager to find transferred files (especially videos).
- Enable "Send Feedback" in the app if you encounter errors (helps improve the service).
- Check file formats — if a video won’t play, install a universal player like VLC.
