You can do user to user transfer. I will try and simplify it.

Make a folder with same name on two devices.
Connect them using scanner code in web app or app.
Make sure to keep source as sender and be able make changes. While receiver should only recieve and do no changes.
Copy file to the folder and it will be sent to reciever.

Afterwards you can remove the file from folder and receiver can also move it elsewhere to view.

Once set up is very easy to send. Its ok ask away if you got any doubts.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
