I tend to prefer "file centered" apps, there's some cool one you'd use with Syncthing? My favourite is KeePassDX; I would love a notes app with a 'material you' UI.

You just install it on both devices, and then add the devices together using the QR code's.

You then add the folder you want to share, and select the device you want to share it with. On thr device you've chosen to share it with, you will get a prompt. You press accept and select the target folder.

The devices will now sync that folder.

Excellent! Got it installed now and it seems to work. It was the prompt bit I was getting confused with - I thought that I'd need to have both folders under the same structure on both machines. This is a brilliant app. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
