Overview

KDE Connect allows devices to securely share content like notifications or files and other features like SMS messaging and remote control. The KDE Connect team has applications for Linux, BSD, Android, Sailfish, macOS and Windows.

GSConnect is a complete implementation of KDE Connect especially for GNOME Shell with Nautilus, Chrome and Firefox integration. It does not rely on the KDE Connect desktop application and will not work with it installed.

Latest News

REMINDER: GSConnect only supports the current stable version of GNOME. There will be no further releases supporting older versions and thus we will not be accepting bug reports for these versions.
