Syncthing is a continuous file synchronization program. It synchronizes files between two or more computers in real time, safely protected from prying eyes. Your data is your data alone and you deserve to choose where it is stored, whether it is shared with some third party, and how it's transmitted over the internet.
Features
Easy To Use
- Powerful. Synchronize as many folders as you need with different people or just between your own devices.
- Portable. Configure and monitor Syncthing via a responsive and powerful interface accessible via your browser. Works on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, OpenBSD, and many others. Run it on your desktop computers and synchronize them with your server for backup.
- Simple. Syncthing doesn't need IP addresses or advanced configuration: it just works, over LAN and over the Internet. Every machine is identified by an ID. Give your ID to your friends, share a folder and watch: UPnP will do if you don't want to port forward or you don't know-how.
Open Source
- Open Protocol. The protocol is a documented specification — no hidden magic.
- Open Source. All source code is available on GitHub — what you see is what you get, there is no hidden funny business.
- Open Development. Any bugs found are immediately visible for anyone to browse — no hidden flaws.
- Open Discourse. Development and usage are always open for discussion.
Private and secure
- Private. None of your data is ever stored anywhere else other than on your computers. There is no central server that might be compromised, legally or illegally.
- Encrypted. All communication is secured using TLS. The encryption used includes perfect forward secrecy to prevent any eavesdropper from ever gaining access to your data.
- Authenticated. Every device is identified by a strong cryptographic certificate. Only devices you have explicitly allowed can connect to your other devices.

I think we know how and where to download. On mobile phones, you simply download from
google play store or fdroid store.

Conclusion:
Syncthing is like google drive and Microsoft one drive. But it does not store our data to clouds instead of it store our data in our device memory which can be sync whenever we connect to our wifi or hotspot. I realize that the syncthing is working on mobile hotspot seamlessly. I hope you are understanding the agenda of my this post. hope you use syncthing.
