• To use the application, two people bump their phones together, and within about five to ten seconds, a screen appears on both users' screens allowing them to confirm what they want to send to each other.

• After sharing confirmation, share up to 5 files at a time. In just a few easy steps sharing and file transfer can be as easy as grabbing!
