Some of the advertising material is just hilarious.

   "However, here, one thing that you need to note down is that you can achieve
    iPhone to PC Bluetooth file transfer for only a few types of files. In fact,
    you can share only a limited amount of data over Bluetooth as it is hectic
    to select files manually for iPhone to windows 10 Bluetooth file transfer.
    And Bluetooth is certainly not the best way to transfer files. For this reason,
    we have explained another great method in the next section."

That's the first time I've seen a technical protocol described as "hectic" :-)

Maybe I should start writing missives about "bone-headed help I find on web pages" :-)

The couple of articles making the claim, seem to claim that just "pairing" devices
is 70% of the battle. Then open a gallery, highlight an image, and some menu
should offer the fsquirt protocol that other OSes offer. There must be a flavor
of BT profile for this, being it is so common. They forget to tell you to
enable "Receive" on the PC end, from the Bluetooth menu, so the Receiver is
ready for the file initiation.

It's going to be 75KB/sec, which is hectic, isn't it :-)

I think hectic means, the writer did not get to sell you something.

*******

Any protocol ("Feem") which is only available for Apps, and a win32
does not exist, makes me immediately suspicious.

Do they seek to abuse the Trust system, by loading peoples computing devices
via Store delivery ? How many Store environments have the source
for the code ?

*******

   "LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices"

    https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39662721

It's a shame, there is a mixture of solution types in the thread,
as some of those are bound to involve non-local things.

I don't understand, why a developer would make a Metro.App and
would be incapable of making a win32 one. If your protocol is
encapsulated in a library, and the library claims to "run anywhere",
you could make a command line version pretty easily.

*******

Fsquirt by the way, is pretty clunky. You have to enable Receive on the
receiving end, before starting the transmit end. I've used it a few times,
where I needed to keep a Win machine isolated from Ethernet, and I was
sending over a 3KB config file. Worked fine for that.

This is all done via Bluetooth menus (maybe in the taskbar lower right).
I only know it as fsquirt.exe , by seeing it in Task Manager or
seeing it in Linux "top" or the like. I don't know what the actual
profile name for that transfer mode is.
