Can you compare mine to Destiny?
I tried to make mine straightforward. Id like to know what kind of user flow I could aim for.

In terms of code? No, I haven't had a look at yours. But for Destiny its totally clear what it does - p2p encrypted device to device file transfer. I had a look at your website and - I should say I'm not trying to be rude - i'm not 100% sure what yours does...its called glitr cloud but also that its p2p? Further down the page there's a series of screenshots that show....what?
I've also read the comments on here and it seems its not open source? And it won't be available on f-droid? But you do have a git repo link, although there's nothing called glitr on it.
Overall, I'm totally confused about what this is, who you are (as an org) and why it matters. With Destiny, I can download the app on all my devices and transfer instantly. I can ask friends to and give them a code to access what I share. Or I could use send.vs.ee if I didnt want to leave Destiny running for my friend.
Its great to have options but I don't really know what yours does or why I should think its better.

thanks for your honest feedback.
ive had feedback that people dont know what my app does before. its actually why im in the process of rebranding to Glitr. it used to be called (and kinda is "positive-intentions"). its very early days in the rebranding process and your feedback helps to guage how im doing. its clear that more needs to be done.
those pictures at the bottom will be removed. i was already on the fence about it. i put it there to add a splash of color to the landing page experience.
as for open source and f-droid. the project is developing in a way that open source isnt sustainable and so i branched out to this project. open source and f-droid are still on the table for a separate and more advanced project (https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat). i think im confusing people by mentioning it at all.
i hope to work towards functionality to make my app as easy and intuitive to use as destiny. i try to be clear in things like my post that its a work in progress to help manage expectations.
