rquickshare works on Linux and is 99% reliable for me, but I don't have a suggestion for iOS devices since I don't use them. https://github.com/Martichou/rquickshare/releases


This is what rquickshare documentation says: "Wi-Fi LAN only. Your devices need to be on the same network for this app to work." So no, it's not an AirDrop replacement.


Problem is that only notebooks/tablets and few pcs have bluetooth, which is used for the handshake for AirDrop.

If we had good mobile OS I bet we would have a solution for both...

Personally I just use wifi/smb for file transfer and hate it when someone comes with their iPhone and isn't able to send a file to me.
