Tool to integrate your smartphone, tablet, and desktop devices. Remote-control, share files, synchronize notifications, and more! At the moment it only supports Android-based mobile devices. Linux desktop devices are well-supported, with ports available for other operating systems.

Superfast transferring files from my iPhone. Easy to setup and to send all kinds of files, just wonderful! One mention is to make sure KDE Connect is not blocked from your firewall. So, make sure to allow KDE Connect in/out connections.

Not the prettiest app but it works if you're on the same wifi network as your phone. If you have your firewall enabled, you'll need to do the following: 1) Open your firewall app 2) click Rules 3) click the + button to add a rule 4) Policy: Allow. Direction: Both. Category: Network. Subcategory: All. Application: KDE Connect. 5) Click Add and you're done.

It works fine. But it need some tweeks to be able to display phone content on newer phones (I have Sony Xperia 10V). I have Gwenview installed and somehow it will open Gwenview to browse the folder? To open the content for newer phones you need to add "/storage/emulated/0" to the folder to view the phone content (otherwize it just show empty folder). For excample "/run/user/1000/"Long-Random-String"/storage/emulated/0" (you have to replace "Long-Random-String" to your phone folder). Then you can browse your phone. On my old Sony Xperia XZs it show content without problem.

Works well on Linux Mint 20.3 and LM 21. Make sure you have configured the Firewall correctly, otherwise it won't work. You can do that with the built-in rules. https://youtube.com/shorts/VyWkYUj-_ds?feature=share

It works on Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon. Make sure you add the firewall rules sudo ufw allow 1714:1764/udp && sudo ufw allow 1714:1764/tcp sudo ufw reload

How do you get this to work on LM 20.3 Cinnamon? I've tried everything. There seems to be no consistent/clear advise.

You have to put some tweaks on your UFW rules, and everything gonna run well.

Works great with Linux Mint 20.1 Cinnamon (4.8.6). You also need to download the KDEConnect applet. When both are installed, I have access to my Oneplus 5 phone (with the KDE Connect App from F-Droid). I had to turn off the firewall though, unfortunately I don't know how I would have to configure it to get it running.

Works well with Mint 20 / Cinnamon. I did take the extra step of installing Indicator-KDEConnect also. This meets my needs and more - although I couldn't browse my phone's filesystem. File sending in either direction is fine though.
