• token-protected LAN endpoints

Requirements

• Windows PC

• Android version from project configuration
• trusted local network

Distribution

• Android APK
• Windows server zip

Quick start

Both assets above are required — download both, in this order:

1. Download safedrop-v0.6.0-windows-server.zip, extract it, and start the server.
2. Download safedrop-v0.6.0-android.apk and install it on your Android device.
3. In the app's connection settings, enter the PC's LAN address and the token shown by
   the server, then verify the connection.

Full step-by-step instructions (server config, token generation, troubleshooting): see
the README Quick start.
