Portal
It's getting easier every time send files from your computer to your smartphone If you don't have the usual USB cable with which to connect both devices, it is always possible to use the cloud or Internet storage services to hang there almost any file and then download it to the mobile through its respective application. A relatively tedious process, in addition to preventing the transfer of large and heavy files in many cases.For this reason, the creators of the Pushbullet system, well known for bringing notifications and other features from the mobile to the computer, have developed Portal A curious application that allows direct transfers between computer and mobile phone without limit for files and with a fast, simple and safe operation.
It is a tool that repeats the formula of others already seen in this area, linking computer and mobile through the same WiFi network , but betting on simplicity and comfort Something that is noticeable from the first moment by not having to install any program on the computer , as the Internet browser is used as a bridge to minimize the number of steps. This is not a limit when it comes to sending files or ordering them on the device, since it respects the folders and collections of documents that are sent, being able to bulk uploadsAll this without the need to pass all these files through a cloud or storage space on the Internet
Just install the application Portal on the device Android After that, all you have to do is access the Internet browser on your computer and enter the Portal web page. As already happens with WhatsApp Web, the system consists of scanning a QR code that allows you to create the link safely and directly. Thus, in the application the terminal's camera can be activated to frame the web code, achieving that, practically instantly, said link is created and remains active to transfer all kinds of files.
And when we say all kinds of files we mean all kinds.Unlike what happened in the Pushbullet system itself, where it was limited to images, here it is possible to send movies from several Weight GB, text documents, applications, zipped folders, photos, videos, GIFs”¦ any file can be sent. Also, the process is really easy As if this page opened on your computer were a folder , you just have to drag and drop on it everything you want to take to the mobile.
The process is fully automatic, so the Portal application starts downloading files to your mobile instantly. Of course, although there is no size limit for the files, the speed is limited by the connection WiFi of the user, so the transfer is not immediate, but yes, much more agile than making the transfer through data by Dropbox, for example.
In short, a very comfortable and fast system for those who do not want to be connecting their mobile to the computer using the USB cable All this without limits in the process and without the need to install link programs on the computer The application Portalis fully available free on Google Play They are also working on a version foriOS that no release date yet
