Microsoft Xim
In Microsoft they have developed a new multiplatform application to put an end to one of the most common daily problems among users of smartphones It is called Xim, and allows share images without sharing the terminal In other words, a way of showing images to other users through the screens of their own terminals and without the dreaded problem that some curious gossip the gallery being able to see images that you shouldn'tAll this in a simple way and with the most striking characteristics.
In this way Xim offers to collect a selection of photos to show them live and live on the screens of other terminals. In this way the user can limit what content they want to see But not only that. It also acts as a slideshow, synchronizing what is seen on the different screens With this, you always know what image other users are seeing, being able to reach to control the zoom remotely and focus attention on any detail of a particular image.
But best of all is how it works. And the fact is that Xim does not force other users to download the application in order to enjoy this experience of photo sharing and not the entire terminal.It is enough for one of the users to open the application, select the source of the images (social networks, galleries, folders”¦) and mark with which users they want to share them . Simply add their phone numbers or email addresses They receive a message with a internet addresswhere to start viewing shared photos. All this without having to download the application.
From now on it is possible to move from one photo to another simply by sliding your finger on the screen Always knowing that the rest of Users will see the same image, exactly as it is displayed on their screen. The same goes for zooming. In addition, Xim has a comment system that allows you to exchange short messages about each photo , showing them on the screen to highlight the opinion of each user and that the rest know it.
In addition, if the other users with whom these images are shared also have the Xim application installed, they can add your own images to the shared gallery, choosing almost any source like Instagram, Facebook, Dropbox or OneDrive in addition to your own reel or gallery With which the presentation can be made much richer and more complete for all users.
One last detail to mention about this application is that said shared gallery is possible thanks to the storage of photos on the Internet However, Microsoft ensures that images are not shared with anyone else, being deleted within a short space of timeso they don't swarm over the network.
In short, a curious and useful application to let see and focus attention on what you want to show, without worrying that users see more than they should in the gallery, in addition to avoiding bumping heads to see an image in the same terminal.The negative point is that, at the moment, this tool is only available in United States and Canada , so we will have to wait a little longer for it to reach other markets. The Xim app is available for Android, iOS and Windows Phone for free Can be downloaded via from Google Play, App Store and Windows Phone Store
