Coop
Your NAS, minus the vendor app. Coop puts the Synology in every app's file picker and streams video straight into Shattercut. It is one 53 KB APK with zero dependencies, and it talks to your NAS and nothing else.
★ Take it home ★
Get Coop
One small APK that signs into DSM's own File Station service — nothing to install on the NAS, no account but your DSM login. Browse shares in a fast native list, tap a video and it opens in Shattercut streaming straight off the NAS, and find the whole NAS in the Open-from drawer of every app on the phone. HTTPS with trust-on-first-use pinning for DSM's self-signed certificate; credentials sealed by the Android Keystore; two-factor handled once with a trusted-device token.
QuickConnect relay is deliberately unsupported — your files never route through anyone's cloud. Use the LAN address, a DDNS name, or your VPN.
★ The numbers ★
Tale of the tape
Coop against the vendor's file app. Their column shifts with every store update; ours is a number you can verify against the signed APK.
★ Fighting weight ★
Small is a feature
The picker is the app
Coop registers your NAS as an Android documents source, so the Synology shows up in Shattercut's Open dialog, in mail attachments, and in any app's Save sheet, right next to the phone's own storage. That's the whole trick, and it's why there's no "integration" to set up.
Streams like it's local
Files stream with ranged reads, so scrubbing a video seeks over the network instead of downloading the file first. A two-gigabyte clip starts playing in the time it takes to fetch its first seconds.
Smaller than one photo it serves
The whole client weighs 53 KB, less than a single snapshot on the NAS it browses. The DSM client, the JSON parser, and the TLS pinning are all written in-house. Nothing else is in the file.
