App Description

PIXWAP (Pic Swap) is designed for sharing pictures and associated text (including web page links). Devices swap data efficiently using many ways of share.

Updated version now allows users to browse to popular websites according to genres as follows:
social media:
reference and search:
pictures:
video:
music:
education:
cloud:
miscellaneous:


PIXWAP stores all shares on the local device to ensure that shares with other devices and posts to social media are easily recalled.

PIXWAP improves productivity by:
providing a single point of reference for all shared images.
providing connections to image and PDF-based apps.
fitting in with workflows that involve editing and sharing images or PDF's.
in-app browsing of the internet, logging link information on the fly for sharing as required

All shared images are stored for recall in compressed format. These are accessed using a powerful search engine.

PIXWAP connects:
device to device (only one purchase required per account)
with apps that use the clipboard for images and text
with apps that edit images
with browser
using bluetooth or Wifi
with mail
with Twitter
with Facebook

Core Data
For quick access to image and text information the app uses relational database technology.

Search
Based on secure code
Based on type of share

Note: PIXWAP does not provide affiliation with any other sites - it only improves access, sharing and recall from a single point of reference...
