Intare v0.1 — first public release. Turn your Android phone/tablet into an SMB file server (no root, no USB).

Features

  • Shares external storage over SMB1/TCP on port 4450, guest access
  • Appears automatically in macOS Finder (Network) and Windows via mDNS/Bonjour
  • Shows the IPs of connected devices on screen; beeps when a device connects or disconnects — even while the app is closed
  • Runs as a background service that keeps serving after the app is closed (stop via the in-app button or notification Stop)

Install
Download Intare-v0.1.apk and sideload it. If you previously installed a debug build, uninstall it first (the release APK is signed with a different key).

Caveats

  • SMB1 only: Linux needs smbclient -m NT1, Windows needs SMB1 enabled or net use Z: \\<ip>\Intare /TCPPORT:4450
  • Port 4450 (445 needs root on Android)
  • Keep it on a trusted network — guest access, no password
