Description
WiFi transfer plugin and standalone app (does not require Total Commander)
Important note: This app does NOT contain any ads. However, it contains a link to Total Commander in the upper right corner if you use a Web Browser to access the files, and this plugin as the server. This is treated as an ad by the Play Store.
This plugin/tool supports direct connections via HTTP over WiFi/WLAN between two Android devices, or between Android (Server) and any device or computer with a Web browser or WebDAV client.
It creates a local Web+WebDAV server. The server URL can either be scanned as a QR-Code, or entered manually.
Although this is mainly a plugin for Total Commander, it can also be used standalone: Simply select some files in any file manager, or text, or an URL, and then use the "share" function to send it to the WiFi plugin. This will start a server and show the URL and QR-Code for the server.
Great to transfer data locally between two Android devices without going through the cloud! Your data will never leave your own wireless LAN network.
Note: Both devices need to be in the same WiFi network. If the sender isn't part of a WiFi network, this tool will offer to create its own access point, or start a WiFi direct connection. Other devices can then connect to this network to transfer data. If you scan the QR-Code from a copy of the WiFi plugin, the connection will be established automatically, and closed automatically when disconnecting.
Unfortunately Android 10 and newer require the "Location" permission to create a WiFi direct server. The app will request this permission only when you try to start a WiFi direct server. It is not needed for normal operation when client and server are on the same network.
Starting with version 3.4, it's now possible to use a fixed path with user name/password login instead of a random path. It uses DIGEST authentication, so your password is never sent in clear text over the connection. This login method is recommended when connecting regularly to the same device, e.g. when mounting the device as a drive in Windows or MacOS.

Comments on WiFi/WLAN Plugin for Totalcmd for Android
★★★★★Just “nowhere” me· Aug 19, 2022
Well this guy made the best Android app ever with Total Commander (file manager), I have been using well over 10 years. With amazing plugins for LAN devices access, clouds access, ftp etc. Buy his Windows version of Total Commander which is great too, shareware version too. This is great too. Samsung phones send files ok via Bluetooth, but they don't seem to allow to receive files view Bluetooth, probably because of Samsung Knox security? Wi-Fi transfer works ok both ways. Another Masterpiece 6*

A must-have plugin to the must-have Total Commander, but also works as standalone. File transfer, between phones as well from phone to pc, via Wi-Fi is so simple to do and very fast, no cloud storare is involved, any WLAN like wireless home network or Android HotSpot is enough. Does NOT show ads, ever. Googles automated review system fails to evaluate correctly.

I see no way to start WebDAV server on phone, to allow browser on my pc to upload (or download) files to (or from) the phone. The description in Play Store says the plugin creates a local WebDAV server, but I don't see anything about the server in the plugin app. The app only mentions receiving files as a client, not as a server. I'm sorry to have to give a low rating, because I like the Totaled app.

Asks to scan QR code or enter URL? Where do I get that from? This does not create a hotspot and web server on the Android device to transfer files with.
★★☆☆☆KmStar· Sep 15, 2023
My review in 2017 used to be that this was perfect. Unfortunately, it appears to have issues in 2023. Even though I have granted location permission and turned on gps. It still fails to create an access point or a Wi-Fi direct server and prompts for location permission in a loop. Location permission is also not necessary in newer versions of android like 13. So, if things were fixed would be great.
