The Windows 10 App had one good option : share a file to any device from the windows explorer. It would be good if this option could be added to Join Desktop for a seemless integration with Windows. It's much better from a UX point of view to share a file from where it is rather than opening join and then sending the file from it.

Hope you can consider it :) 

Currently, sending files requires uploading and then downloading from Google Drive.

However, a local connection seems far more efficient.

For example, if both devices are connected to the same network then it will be a simple local connection transfer. It will be faster since it won't require upload and it will also download using the wireless speed.

And if it detects that the devices aren't using the same connection then it can be either a pop-up triggers to notify that it will require remote transfer, or it can happen automatically.

Local connection can be used in various ways, and for file transferring I feel it is efficient.

Will appreciate your thoughts!

Thanks! (^ ^)

You can do it like this: https://github.com/anotherdev/firebase-auth-rest/pull/9/files

For now I had autoit to perform relevant mouseclicks and keystrokes after a file transfer was finished, for example.

 A cmd command will make notification/pushes cleaner and not as shady when NOT afk hahah

This Head unit cannot be updated past 4.4 KitKat. (well 5.1.1 is available but its very slow) and its hard to find a widget that can do this.

Here's an example: curl -I "https://content.dropboxapi.com/apitl/1/AeZwXtWZQr33YYhywOjP3pjXJoMZa9YSZsxhyaRNaDKdI5XPYeHP8lStv7kTpOzdVFJ60YpM5E1gkXf10A3KjUAFodcgQNjduNmV8f6tyRxZXSNbFWEX3aiW3IJOLLepy1OJUx7a7tNSCUv1G4nDha2rMgryHNQ9len-iPsnkgMQUL4x19A5xAyHKILQMh_taXF-bdE8T7NU86TkhV-_lMTqrXI25ROG71UAWJaA8rdt76tBBEDtxWw06zKh4QLc9PeR3a_7nYUsFfGhc2UVUO962SuSkNP3KV4FfTzjlaVechv7aNpEqS4-8ltAoMDgQYHtJ70c_5NDZIrdhOAtm0SKQqkSSftUUQ7DrI0ojZ1mjaOubQxT7PGa3wl1uI1wT2Rrsd-ReWbMjAbudB42l75oQCKUdJf7wEZ1lH5DbF51bCjERZ27_PPYctRkgDKBMFlgQtK-bGj-WsfpI4JzyN0Y"

Would be awesome if Join could use this filename* param (if present) for writing the file.

Thanks again for all your hard work on this app - I've been a loyal user for many years and still have found nothing that comes close to it :)

I think a Local WiFi connection without internet for Join will be very practical and useful...

I think there's a heavy use of join to connect devices which are not on us, but still within reach.

Like, mirroring notifications to PC, when my phone is in other room. Or sending file to multiple devices while working on a project. And getting it in few secs or getting notified of incoming calls or SMS.

I think a Local WiFi without internet connection can be perfect for such use. As data won't be send to external servers, So no doubt about the privacy breach. Also it will be faster as you don't have to rely on internet speed.

There is already an app called easyjoin on playstore which works on Local, without internet. Also it allows to control other devices. But it's not stable and is very new.

As we all love and trust Joao, I request if you can add this to our favourite Join :)

I would love to be able to take a screenshot on my computer that is saved in the clipboard and then be able to paste that image into the Chrome Extension. 

I know that I can get around this by saving the image and then attaching the image to the conversation, but it would be very helpful to just be able to "paste" the image into the conversation.

Thanks for all of your hard work!

Yet the Join chrome extension always bugs me to sign in by opening a new tab. It is incredibly annoying to always be asked to sign into a Google account whenever I start a session because of this extension.

I now have around 6 tabs opened when I start my session with tabs from the last time that are all asking me to sign in! It's frustrating to close these tabs constantly!

PLEASE allow the option to enable/disable this sign in feature. Otherwise allow me to sign into a google account once WITHOUT actually signing into Google's other web services, like Gmail, History, YouTube, Google+, etc.

I think encryption should be supported by the API. It's easy to see the encryption method used by looking into the Chrome extension code, so clients which use the API can easily reproduce it. Security would be very much improved. Maybe a simple "encrypted=true" flag in the URL?

EDIT: I was able to make encryption work for notification text, but not for the notification title? Maybe I'm missing something? I think it should be documented.

Thanks!
