hintview vs MeshDrop

This app is a viewer for HINT files. HINT files are generated by HiTeX or HiLaTeX which is distributed together with TeX Live since 2022. HINT files contain TeX output in a reflowable format; this means that paragraphs and pages are adjusted on demand to the available window or screen size.

Share text, photos, videos and files directly between your iPhone, iPad and Mac with MeshDrop. No account, ads or cloud relay. CONNECT NEARBY Discover devices on your local network, use Bluetooth, or connect Apple devices over peer-to-peer Wi-Fi without joining the same network. Keep MeshDrop open on both devices; peer-to-peer Wi-Fi requires Wi-Fi to be enabled. ENCRYPTED TRANSFERS Local-network and Apple peer-to-peer connections use TLS 1.3 with device identity verification. Bluetooth transfers use encrypted system connections. Confirm a device once and remember it as trusted. A USEFUL CONVERSATION HISTORY Copy received text, read Markdown, view images and play videos from conversations and history. Preview or share received files, and optionally copy received text to the clipboard automatically. Delete an individual entry together with its received file and app-managed copies on this device; your original sent file and the other device's history are preserved. BUILT FOR YOUR DEVICES Follow transfer progress, share from other apps on iPhone and iPad, and choose from Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, French, German and Spanish. The app follows your system language. Update both devices to MeshDrop 1.1 or later for encrypted native transfers. Earlier clients using the old unencrypted protocol cannot connect to this version.
