Just, when you say that the phyphox files only need to be stored on the user device, that is not totally true, at least on the Android side: the app phyphox should also be able to access it, and know that it should.
There is an app called “Files” that similarly exists on Android, AFAIR. Typically, I just use the shared folders (in iCloud), however, on-device files work equally well: on iDevices a .phyphox file from storage gets opened in phyphox on tap…
Quote:Dominik, thank you for this trick. I am not a dropbox user, so I did not test it before, but it is great. So I could advice a physics teacher to :
- upload a phyphox file on dropbox
- create a QR code from the link to share the file with "phyphox://" at the beginning, and "dl=1" at the end
The “phyphox://” won't work here as it would indicate an unsupported protocol for dropbox, just the regular “https://” link.
However, the link that Dominik has provided just gives me a download and I need to separately open the downloaded file, so there does not appear to be an advantage for Dropbox over any other cloud storage service, does it?
I have fully understood your intention, Fred. If opening the .phyphox files from storage on Android does not work, there does not appear to be a cross platform solution rather than Sebastian's link magic, I suppose…?
