qrcp starts a small web server on your local network and prints a QR code in the terminal. Scan it with your phone to download the files you are sending, or to upload files from the phone to your computer. Both devices must be on the same network.
Examples
qrcp send ~/Pictures/photo.jpg
qrcp send --zip ~/Documents/report ~/Documents/notes.txt
qrcp receive --output ~/Downloads
qrcp --interface wlan0 --port 8080 send video.mp4
qrcp config
File access
qrcp can send and receive files in your home directory. To also use USB drives and other removable media (/media, /mnt), run:
sudo snap connect qrcp:removable-media
The configuration file is stored in ~/snap/qrcp/current/.config/qrcp.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.
The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below.
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 9 with the following command:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 8 with the following command:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 7 with the following command:
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
Adding the optional and extras repositories is also recommended:
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install qrcp, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install qrcp --beta
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
