Amazin app, works like a charm
by Paolo Donadio, 2024-10-13

Works as needed! My type c port got broken on my old phone(good thing i can still charge) and thus data swapping wasnt possible. So this app saved me from loosing data!

No way to do password authentication... cannot get rid of password authentication after "Disable password authentication" and reboot
