Overview
Packet is a modern, cross-platform tool that implements a portion of Google’s Quick Share (formerly Nearby Share) protocol. It allows users to send and receive files wirelessly between Android devices and desktops or other machines running Packet. Designed for speed and simplicity, it eliminates the need for cables or cloud uploads by using local network protocols to handle fast, secure peer-to-peer data transfers.
