As of August 2017, you can use kdeconnect on Unity if you install kde-connect indicator. To do that:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/indicator-kdeconnect
sudo apt update
sudo apt install indicator-kdeconnect

    1. To share files between your PC and Android, I use Airdroid, no
      PC client needed.

    2. To Control your laptop from your PC, I use Splashtop, The Ubuntu client is available in the software center, I'd download it personally from Splashtop.com. My friend likes to use teamviewer instead, the Ubuntu client is available on Teamviewer.com

    Note that I have never shared web pages, although it might be possible, I prefer using pocket, it has an extension for dolphin browser if you use it, maybe other browsers as well, and an extension for every PC browser.

    • I use Airdroid and Pocket All the time, splashtop is a nice suggestion. Kdeconnect had just a deeper level of integration when hooked up your messages and sms show on the laptop, it pauses music on the laptop when this happens. It's just done well and I had hoped to avoid kdelibs
