- In a conversation with a contact who is offline, go to Menu > connections > transfer data
- tap send data, choose file for export and turn the device in landscape orientation - pay attention to graphics depicting the ata export
- then navigate back and tap on receive data > choose a file to import and pay attention to the graphi size
Two issues:
- the size of the graphic in the two cases is different
- the green arrow for data importing should be pointing towards the smartphone and nt towards the USB drive

This could be done by not configuring the plugin on API < 19, so no transport properties will be sent.
A nicer but more complex solution would be to send different transport properties on API < 19 (supported = false), so the contact's device knows that we're running a Briar version that's aware of the transport, but our device doesn't support it, and thus the contact's UI can show an appropriate message.

I.e. first go to the app settings and if the location permission is currently granted to the app, then revoke it. Afterwards start the app sharing procedure and expect that we do not ask for the location permission.
When starting the hotspot, we ask the user for the location permission on all API levels, although we probably only need to do this on API 29+.
At least on API 23 we can still successfully start the hotspot and share the app even if the location permission is denied.Install via Bluetooth or Wi-FiIvanaIvana2021-07-31https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/2099Transfer Data state lost when Activity and ViewModel get destroyed2021-07-26T15:12:43ZTorsten GroteTransfer Data state lost when Activity and ViewModel get destroyedWhen using the Notorious Developer Option: if I put Briar into the background while a write task is running, then relaunch it from the recent apps list when the task has finished, the `SendFragment` is still shown with the button disable...When using the Notorious Developer Option: if I put Briar into the background while a write task is running, then relaunch it from the recent apps list when the task has finished, the `SendFragment` is still shown with the button disabled and no progress bar.

The presence of transport keys doesn't necessarily mean the contact supports the transport, as when adding a contact we derive keys for all transports we support, without knowing whether the contact also supports them.
For all existing transports we can use transport properties to check whether the contact supports the transport. But the removable drive transport doesn't have any properties.
Add a "supported" property for all transports, so that we can tell which transports a contact supports regardless of whether any properties are needed for establishing a connection.
We may also be able to use this property for key derivation when adding a contact, so that we only derive keys for transports both parties support.Transfer content securely via SD cards and USB memory sticksakwizgranakwizgran2021-07-31https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/2090Crash after double-tap of Start Sharing button2021-08-27T11:40:55ZIvanaCrash after double-tap of Start Sharing buttonSteps to reproduce:

- Goto settings > share Briar app offline
- on the first screen that shows, double tap the Start Sharing button
Expected results:

Actual results:
- Briar crashes.

This happens because the sender records the ID of the message that triggered the abort in the session, but the recipient doesn't. Any subsequent message with the same sender and recipient is rejected by the recipient because it depends on the message that triggered the abort, not on that message's predecessor as the recipient expects.Transfer content securely via SD cards and USB memory sticksakwizgranakwizgran2021-07-31https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/2083Add eager mode to BSP spec2021-11-12T18:00:01ZakwizgranAdd eager mode to BSP specTransfer content securely via SD cards and USB memory sticks2021-07-31https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/issues/2082Protocol spec for transport key agreement client2021-11-12T17:16:42ZakwizgranProtocol spec for transport key agreement clientTransfer content securely via SD cards and USB memory sticks2021-07-31
