qnearbyshare-send always prints No targets found. with android "visible to everyone" turned on. wifi and bluetooth are enabled on both devices. also sorry for so many opened issues :D

For Android devices, you'll need to visit the Google Files app and explicitly choose to receive files from Nearby Share. Unfortunately it is not currently known how to make Android display the "Nearby device is sharing" notification at this time.
