## 🎨🔀 Differences to the [Snapdrop](https://github.com/RobinLinus/snapdrop) it is based on
👀|View all differences
### 📶 Paired Devices and Public Rooms — Internet Transfer
* Transfer files over the Internet between paired devices or by entering temporary public rooms.
* Connect to devices in complex network environments (public Wi-Fi, company network, iCloud Private Relay, VPN, etc.).
* Connect to devices on your mobile hotspot.
* Devices outside of your local network that are behind a NAT are auto-connected via the ErikrafT Drop TURN server.
* Devices from the local network, in the same public room, or previously paired are shown.
#### 🔐 Persistent Device Pairing
Always connect to known devices
* Pair devices via a 6-digit code or a QR-Code.
* Paired devices always find each other via shared secrets independently of their local network.
* Pairing is persistent. You find your devices even after reopening ErikrafT Drop.
* You can edit and unpair devices easily.
#### 🌎 Temporary Public Rooms
Connect to others in complex network situations, or over the Internet.
* Enter a public room via a 5-letter code or a QR-code.
* Enter a public room to temporarily connect to devices outside your local network.
* All devices in the same public room see each other.
* Public rooms are temporary. Closing ErikrafT Drop leaves all rooms.
