About rsend

Pushes configured phone folders (DCIM, WhatsApp media, call recordings, and

so on) to one or more home SSH hosts using rsync over SSH. One-way push

only, on an unmetered network by default, periodic or on demand.

rsync and the SSH transport are built from source and shipped inside the APK.

The app needs all-files access to read arbitrary backup folders such as OEM

call-recording directories.

Features:

* Multiple named remotes; each folder picks its destination host.

* Incremental transfers; large videos resume from a private partial directory.

* Per-folder deletion policy: additive backup or mirror.

* Runs on an unmetered network, periodically or on demand.

* Ed25519 client-key auth with strict, pinned host-key verification.

What's new in 0.2.1

Fixes: adding the first folder or removing the last one now updates the schedule immediately, the dashboard no longer stalls while it reads its state, the folder picker keeps its place when the screen rotates, and a configuration over rsend's limits is reported instead of crashing the editor. No change to how files are transferred.
