Scan a QR with your normal camera, pick your files, and they land on your computer.
The problem
Open mail, attach, send, open on PC, download. Big videos often won't fit as attachments.
Message yourself, then download. Photos get compressed by default.
Find the cable, unlock the phone, allow access, dig through folders.
Signups, pairing, permissions. Too much for one photo.
