    I wanted something like this for weddings or group camping type events for sharing photos to multiple others at once.

        Airdrop is two people at a time. Say we had a group of 8 people I don’t want to do 7 air drop exchanges to get all the photos.

          QuickShare, AirDrop and LocalSend all use WiFi, which can be a problem when using a VPN (it is for me).

            Sounds like the problem is your vpn client if you cant chose what traffic goes into it

                    It depends on the VPN client, doesn’t it? I use iptables to route everything through a proxy except local host and proxied connections

              Right but turning the VPN off invalidates the purpose of using a VPN. And even if it didn’t, it’s not convenient to disable on both devices and then turn it back on. The whole purpose of this software is convenience.
