 ## Limitations
 
-* **Receive only**. For now. I haven't yet figured out how to make Android turn on the MDNS service and/or show the "a device nearby is sharing" notification.
 * **Wi-Fi LAN only**. Your Android device and your Mac need to be on the same network for this app to work. Google's implementation supports multiple mediums, including Wi-Fi Direct, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth, some kind of 5G peer-to-peer connection, and even a WebRTC-based protocol that goes over the internet through Google servers. Wi-Fi direct isn't supported on macOS (Apple has their own, incompatible, AWDL thing, used in AirDrop). Bluetooth needs further reverse engineering.
 * **Visible to everyone on your network at all times** while the app is running. Limited visibility (contacts etc) requires talking to Google servers, and becoming temporarily visible requires listening for whatever triggers the "device nearby is sharing" notification.

 ## FAQ
 
+#### The app would not open because "Apple cannot check it for malicious software", you gotta fix your shit
+
+Right-click the app in Finder and select "Open". Or, open System Settings -> Privacy and security, scroll down and allow the app to run.
+
+#### My Android device doesn't see my Mac
+
+Make sure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network. Local network communication may not work on some public networks — for example, in coffee shops or hotels. If you're on your own network, check your router settings to make sure it's not blocking local devices from talking to each other.
+
+#### How do I send files?
+
+Right-click a file in Finder, select Share, then select NearDrop.
+
+#### How do I send links?
+
+From the menu bar: File -> Share -> NearDrop. Safari also has a share button on the toolbar.
+
+#### My Mac doesn't see my Android device
+
+Unfortunately, Android listens for specific BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) broadcasts to automatically become visible, and macOS doesn't allow apps to send them. As a workaround, you have to open the "Google Files" and tap "Receive" on the "Nearby Share" tab.
+
+To make it more easily accessible and/or if you don't want to install Google Files, you can use an app like [one of these](https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-manually-create-a-homescreen-shortcut-to-a-known-unique-android-activity.4336833/) to create a shortcut to launch one of these activity intents:
+
+- Option 1:
+  - Action: `com.google.android.gms.RECEIVE_NEARBY`
+  - Mime type: `*/*`
+- Option 2:
+  - Component name: `com.google.android.gms/.nearby.sharing.ReceiveSurfaceActivity`
+
+#### Can the menu bar icon be removed?
+
+Yes. Drag the icon off the menu bar while holding cmd. To bring it back, launch the app a second time, while it's already running.
+
 #### Why is the app not notarized?
 
-Because I don't want to pay Apple $99 a year for the privilege of developing macOS apps and oppose their idea of security.
+Because I don't want to pay Apple $99 a year for the privilege of developing macOS apps and I oppose their idea of security. The slightly less scary security warning isn't worth $99/year IMO.
 
 #### Why is this not on the app store?
