Hello @trxsudo It's @StoopidoMan here.

I think you might be on iPhone/IOS, so this may help you!

I have been facing the same issue with Resilio Sync as well, where Android and Windows have no issues but my iPhone doesn't connect (unless if I turn on Tracker Server) I am not sure what is causing this. But when I uncheck Local Network in LocalSend setting and then close-open the app, then I am able to send and receive. But, then I had to repeat that every now and then!

It is finicky, so I can't pinpoint the real cause. Is it IOS? Or LocalSend.

Try that as temporary solution until LocalSend developer respond.

PS: This solution didn't work with Resilio Sync.

Hi. I'm facing the same problem.
computer : linux (debian testing), localsend 1.15.3, installed from debian package
mobile : iphone, ios 16.7.8 , localsend 1.15.3, installed from app store

iPhone can send to computer but not the other way around.
Computer can send or receive to and from the other linux computer on the network.

Looking it up on the internet, I think it may be because of ios firewall but could not find a way to disabling or bypassing it (none of the solutions I found is applicable, the setting just doesn't exist).

Cheeers
