Notification Listener Service\n  - Foreground Service for persistent connection\n  - Clipboard Manager integration\n- **Companion App:** [AirSyncMac](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSyncMac) (Swift) for macOS\n\n---\n\n## Screenshots\n\n\u003c!-- Add screenshots here --\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \n  ![Screenshot_20250515-190811](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8002d209-2d47-44db-9c31-8ffd4ef08385)\n  \n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n---\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Android device (API level 32+)\n- macOS device with [AirSyncMac](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSyncMac) installed and running\n- Both devices connected to the same Wi-Fi/local network\n\n### Installation\n\n#### From APK\n\n1. Download the latest `.apk` from [Releases](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSync/releases).\n2. Install on your Android device. You may need to allow installation from unknown sources.\n\n#### Building from Source\n\n1. **Clone the Repository**\n    ```sh\n    git clone https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSync.git\n    cd AirSync\n    ```\n2. **Open in Android Studio**\n3. **Build and Run** on your device.\n\n##### Required Permissions\n\n- **Notification Access:** For mirroring notifications - Restricted by default if you sideload\n- **Clipboard Access:** For clipboard sync\n- **Network Access:** For communication with Mac\n\n---\n\n## Configuration\n1. **Grant Wireless Debugging:**  \n   - [optional] Enable Wireless Debugging from the developer options for app screen mirroring\n\n2. **First Launch:**  \n   - Grant notification and clipboard permissions as prompted.\n       - If the settings infor that these are restricted, You will have to visit app info, click the 3 dot menu and allow restricted permissions with biometrics if requested and then try again\n   - You might need to close and re-open the app after both permissions granted.\n   - Ensure macOS app is running on the same network.\n\n2. **Pairing Devices:**\n   - Start the service. Optionally select which apps you want to include/ skip.\n   - The Android app will display you the local ip address and the port it's active.\n   - Enter the details in the AirSyncMac fields and continue.\n\n4. **Setting Preferences:**  \n   - Exclude apps from notification sync. You can change settings while the service is running.\n\n---\n\n## Usage\n\n- **Notification Sync:**  \n  - Notifications received on your Android device will appear on your Mac.\n  - App icons will be used as the preview.\n\n- **Clipboard Sync:**  \n  - Currently, You only can send text to the mac by sharing the text and selecting AirSync from the share sheet target.\n  - Once shared, it will be automatically copied to the macOS clipboard.\n\n---\n\n## Security \u0026 Privacy\n\n- **Encryption:** nope, idk how to do, might discover in the future.\n- **No Cloud Storage:** Data never leaves your local network.\n- **Permissions:** Only requests permissions strictly required for functionality.\n- **Open Source:** Reviewable code for full transparency.\n\n---\n\n## Troubleshooting \u0026 FAQ\n\n- **Notifications not appearing on Mac?**\n  - Ensure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi.\n  - Check notification access permission.\n  - Restart both apps.\n\n- **Clipboard not syncing?**\n  - Make sure the Mac app is running and paired.\n  - Clipboard will not share during screen mirroring since scrcpy can handle that anyways.\n\n- **Connection issues?**\n  - Disable VPNs or firewalls that may block local network communication.\n\n\u003e For more help, please open an [issue](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSync/issues).\n\n---\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome!  \nPlease read [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) (no such thing yet) for guidelines.\n\n- Fork the repo\n- Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b feature/AmazingFeature`)\n- Commit your changes (`git commit -am 'Add amazing feature'`)\n- Push to the branch (`git push origin feature/AmazingFeature`)\n- Open a pull request\n\n---\n\n## Roadmap\n\n- [ ] Remote notification actions\n- [ ] Cross-platform support (Windows/Linux), low priority\n- [ ] User interface enhancements\n- [ ] Better ways to share the clipboard\n\n---\n\n## License\n\n[MIT](LICENSE)\n\n---\n\n## Acknowledgements\n\n- Android Open Source Project\n- Kotlin\n- Vibe coding, because I'ma newb\n- [AirSyncMac](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSyncMac)\n\n---\n\n## Contact\n\n- **Author:** [sameerasw.com](https://www.sameerasw.com) putanythinghere@sameerasw.com\n- **Issues \u0026 Feedback:** [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSync/issues)\n- **Mac Client:** [AirSyncMac](https://github.com/sameerasw/AirSyncMac)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsameerasw%2Fairsync","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsameerasw%2Fairsync","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsameerasw%2Fairsync/lists"}
