Add ability to share folders.

Right now, I can't share a folder with all of it's content and I think this is a basic function for app like this. Are you going to add this feature?

Don't think sharing folders is a basic function. I think you mean to say sharing multiple files, not sharing a folder. Also it is OS, feel free to contribute anytime.

I mean sharing folder with it's content. If a folder contain 2 subfolders that contain anything and other files mp4, word files and anything. I'm not a programmer but this feature is working fine in trebleshot you may look at it.

I don't think trebleshot is cross platform, this is.

Could this feature be just in Android version?

I couldn't find option to transfer folders in trebleshot! 🧐 Are you sure it exists?

Yes, I am. As in this photo I have selected 2 folders, each one of them has files and folders also inside.

I hope you add this feature since trebleshot isn't maintained anymore and sharik seems that they aren't interested in it.

Any updates?

I'm working on this feature in my free time. I have seen other apps have folder sharing but none of them preserve the folder structure. I am trying to implement true folder share with preserved folder structure at receivers' end. I am working on this branch - https://github.com/abhi16180/photon/tree/folder_share
