#### Transfer files over Wi-Fi between your computer and phone with a QR code

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.
