F Droid Nearby

Has anyone heard of/used this app?
https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.nearby
I stumbled across it and I wondered if this could be useful for transitioning to a new phone? Like share all my installed app APK files to the new phone to make sure I don't miss an app? It seems pretty cool (and yes, I know it says it was built for an older version of Android).

I used that app years ago (maybe 3?) to transfer apps from an old Huawei P9 to a P30 and it worked fine. Only had 3 or 4 to transfer if I'm remembering correctly though.

Developer-Dude the most recent version of this app is an early alpha from 2021. Why would you even consider using this?

DeletedUser784 it's built into the main fdroid client now, they probably should take the older standalone app down from the repo at this point.

DeletedUser784 I just came across it. I probably won't use it, just came across it and wanted to know how well it does work. :)
