| 1328861 | 2013-02-19 20:56:00 | A client has purchased a new Samsung Tablet, and wants to be able to take a picture on it, and for it to be automatically uploaded so they can view it on their PC - basically what Apple's photo stream does. I've been looking through various sync apps and DropBox seems to do what we're after - I'm just wondering if anyone does this with a particular app, or could recommend a better app than DropBox for it. The only stipulation is it has to happen automatically - pic taken -> pic uploaded -> Pc automatically downloads pic. Thanks. :) |

Another possible option is the EyeFi app (and PC app) - I have the card, but it comes with an IOS (and I think android) app, that will take camera roll photos and dump them on a local computer, or flickr/facebook etc. This might be another option. |

AFAIK you can download them with Picasa, but don't quote me on that. No they don't count towards any storage, unless you upload them in full resolution. If G+ is allowed to resize them to 2MP, then you have unlimited storage. At full size you get 5GB free. |

| 1328868 | 2013-02-19 23:02:00 | I use Dropbox and it works great. Take photo on phone or tablet and they quickly end up in my PC Images folder to be viewed by Picasa. | linw (53) | ||
