After months of solo work, my app to fix cross-platform file sharing (UniDrop) is ready for beta feedback! 🎉

Hey IH community,
I'm incredibly excited (and a bit nervous) to share a huge milestone today. After months of working on it solo, my app UniDrop is finally at a stage where I need to get it into the hands of real people.

The "Why":
It all started from that classic developer frustration. I live in a mixed-device world (MacBook, Android phone, Windows PC), and I was tired of the clumsy workarounds needed to send a simple file or link between them. I wanted to build a seamless, universal bridge.

The Tech Stack (for the curious):
I built it with Flutter for the cross-platform clients (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows) and a lightweight Node.js backend for signaling. The P2P magic is all handled by WebRTC. Getting the data channels to be stable across all platforms was a huge challenge, but I'm proud of where it's at now.

The Milestone:
Today, I've officially packaged the beta versions for all four platforms and set up the landing page. It feels surreal to have something tangible that people can actually download and use.

The Ask / Where I Need Your Feedback:
My next big challenge is gathering feedback. As a solo dev, my biggest blind spot is testing on devices I don't own. I'm looking for a handful of people who live in a mixed-device world to try it out and give me some brutally honest feedback. Does it actually solve a problem you have?
You can find all the beta download links and more info on the official site: https://getunidrop.app

I'm not here to "promote" in a spammy way, but genuinely to ask for your feedback as fellow builders. What do you think of the idea?
Thanks for being an awesome community. I'll be in the comments all day to chat!
