When two devices are connected to my mac, when I try to send the file to the second device on the list it sends the file to the first one for some reason

It's a known bug! You should be using the share menu only when one device is connected. It can't handle multiple files and multiple devices as of yet!

You can instead just drag and drop the file that you want to send to the Soduto menu bar icon. That feature has been for a long time and it's reliable. The Share Extension was really difficult to implement due to the existing code structure of Soduto and it isn't reliable as of yet!

That being said, I look forward to implement a better way of managing multiple files and devices for the Share Extension.

Awesome, thanks for the consideration. I look forward to it.
I was also planning to contribute to the code in any way and tried setting up the project but had some errors in installing the cocoa dependencies. Will try again when I have some time again. I'm still a beginner in this but I have personal interest in Making the Android Mac compatibility work as seamlessly as possible.

Do you have any plans for a rewrite? Or migrating to Swift UI 5 or something. Anyway would love to contribute.
Thanks for this project ✨ .

I don't think I'm skilled enough for a complete rewrite and don't have any plans as of yet to migrate to Swift 5. Soduto is what it is because of the original developers' work. I just tried to rewrite it's deprecated code with my limited knowledge since it wasn't in active development for a very long time.
