The problem
Steps to reproduce Install from F-Droid Kde-Connect for transferring files toward a linux computer ; Send a file with Kde Connect ; The file is received after less than one second and can be opened on the computer ;
What is the current behavior? On the phone the notification is blinking "Sending a file" and there is no way to stop that. If several files are sent, there are several endless notifications. The only way to remove the notifications is to restart the phone.
What is the expected correct behavior? When the file is received by the computer, we should have "File sent". And It should be possible to erase the notification.
I just checked on a phone with Google's Android, there is no problem with same app Kde Connect.
