Flying Carpet vs Sharing
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Flying Carpet
Send and receive files between Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows over ad hoc WiFi. No shared network or cell connection required, just two devices with WiFi chips in close range. Don't have a flash drive? Don't have access to a wireless network? Need to move a file larger than 2GB between different filesystems but don't want to set up a network share? Try it out!
Sharing
Share files and apps using browser. you need the other device to be connected to the same network. Files sent from browser to the app can be found in Sharing/ folder in your internal storage. You will need to send this app to the other device in case you sent an app with split apk files. Make sure you use hotspot to get faster speeds transferring files. All thanks goes to Hamdy El-Menshawy for the UI design specially the web side App made by Ammar64
