Sefirah is an opinionated phone link alternative designed to enhance your workflow with seamless clipboard and notification sharing between your Windows PC and Android device. It's tailored for users who want a straightforward and efficient way to keep their devices in sync.

Features:

Clipboard Sync: Seamlessly share clipboard content between your Android device and Windows PC.
Media Control: Control media playback and volume of your PC from android.
Notification Sync: Allows toasting the notifications from your android in desktop.
Storage Integration: Integrate your android storage with your pc to access files from your phone.

Limitations:

Notification Sync: Due to Android's restrictions, sensitive notifications are not shown from android 15 onward (Only workaround is to give the required permission through adb).

Permissions:

Accessibility permissions: For syncing Android's clipboard to Windows.
Location permissions: For checking if the Android device is in a familiar network or not and initiating auto reconnection.
Storage permissions: For allowing windows to access Android storage
Media permission: Primarily for accessing the device wallpaper.
Notification permission: For notifying device connection status, other misc feature notifications if necessary and keeping the connection alive.
Notification Listener permission: To listen to incoming and active notification

Note: you will need the companion Windows app.

WhatsNew:

Added sms texting support
Allow invoking notifications directly from desktop through scrcpy
Fixed a few issues with network discovery and connectivity
Fixed an issue where preference settings won't be saved correctly

Download Source Issues ChangeLog

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
