Sidecar
There are applications of all kinds. The possibilities of smartphones and the creativity of developers are almost endless, surprising us from time to time with applications like Sidecar A complete communication tool that not only allows you to be in contact with other users through free calls through Internet, but it multiplies its possibilities by giving you the option to share all types of files at the same time.
Sidecar is a complete communication platform, all through an application with a design care, and what is best, easy handling thanks to its main screen, from which you can access all services . The only requirement for this application is to have a Internet connection, either through a Wi-Fi network or from 3G or even 4G In such a way, all the processes are free, without adding costs.
The main purpose of Sidecar is to be able to make calls To For this, the first thing once installed is to create an account by entering the telephone number and a username After that, it automatically scans the phone's contact list to know the contacts that also have this application installed.If not, it is always possible send invitations by message SMS, email or even by Facebook And it is necessary that the two interlocutors have the application to be able to make the call through Internet, in addition to using the rest of the functions.
And precisely these other functions is what attracts the attention of Sidecar Once communication has been established in the call, andwithout interrupting it is possible to exchange images, video at that very moment, the user's current location or business cards All this with a couple of touches on the screen. In addition, to prevent the call from being dropped, when the user separates the terminal from their ear, the speaker is automatically activated, allowing the screen to be manipulated without having to interrupt the conversation.
To do all this, a single screen is presented with several circular buttons: one for the photograph , which can be taken immediately or send a stored in the gallery. Another is used to start the video broadcast and show what is being viewed at that moment. On the right side, with the name Location, it is possible to send the user's location, while the one at the bottom allows search and share any contact stored in the phonebook Finally, this application also allows you to send messages to other users during the conversation itself with the button Whisper , located at the bottom left of the screen.
In short, Sidecar is a useful tool to stay in touch in a broader sense than a simple phone call, which can be very useful for switching between voice and video, or being able to share an image that shows something that cannot be described.However, the negative point of the application is its own youth, and that is that even that it is not implemented and spread, it is of little use that only a few users have it. The good thing is that it is developed for the main platforms: Android and iPhone And even better, that it is an application completely free, which can be downloaded from Google Play and iTunes
