I've always wanted an easy way to get a log file off of my Android apps.. Android has a 'share via' feature which lets you share a File with another app, but typically that meant using an e-mail app and not everyone has an e-mail app configured on their device.. plus, that has to go through an email server.

My question is -- is there some way I can open sharedrop.io in a browser from my Android app and have it automatically add/share a given file? Maybe it's not possible due to how an app and the Browser communicate.. but looking for ideas on how to simplify the use of sharedrop.

Essentially, I want to have an option in the app to 'share with sharedrop.io'. Click on that and it opens the page and tries to share a given file. The user would just need to open sharedrop.io on another browser in the same network

This could be possible by using the Share Target API

First, it must be a PWA #82
