By Polkast

Let your mobile devices access your PCs directly and securely.

Connect directly to your PC from your mobile device, and instantly access ALL of your files, videos, photos and music anywhere. View all of the photos on your computer instantly on your mobile, with iPhoto album integration. Stream videos directly over Wi-Fi, and fetch a 1GB file in minutes. We're different from cloud storage services. No more pre-planning what files to sync to the cloud and absolutely no storage limits. With Polkast, all of your files stay on your own computer, in your control, and are available to you whenever you need them, no matter where you are - across the room or across the world. Polkast brings the cloud to you! We connect your mobile and computer directly to form your own secure personal cloud. Download Polkast on each device (www.polkast.com/download/). Note: For every device you want access to or from, a client (Mac, PC or mobile) is required. Your computer must be turned on to access files from mobile. Features: - Search through thousands of computer files instantly while on the go. - View your docs and photos, play video from any of your devices, anywhere. - Save photos and videos directly back to your computer, over the air. - Send files from your computer using your mobile phone or tablet as a remote control. Great for large home videos! - Post photos to Facebook, even if you don't have them on your mobile. - Polkast is secure - we never store your files, and your account is protected by password and SSL encryption -- the same methods used by banks and the military. - Connect unlimited mobile devices to your computer with Polkast for free. - Connect multiple computers with Polkast Pro, including PC-to-PC feature. Upgrade in your Polkast mobile app through Settings/Account -- just $4.99/month.

GREAT APPLICATION.
wdrwmn-137/18/2013
Pros
I CAN LINK IT TO MY HOME SERVER.
Cons
MUSIC CAN ONLY BE PLAYED ONE FILE AT A TIME. I WAS HOPING FOR MORE OF A MUSIC PLAYER. THEY HAVE AN APP THAT YOU CAN PURCHASE FOR $5 CALLED POLKAST MUSIC BUT $5 IS A BIT MUCH.
Summary
Great App!!
iggy673/29/2013
Pros
Works faster than using a USB cord.
Cons
It needs a feature to be able to shut off the start with windows. Do like stuff atomaticly starting every time I turn on the computer. It's annoying and it bogs down your computer making it slow to start up. Also, you need the computer on all the time. Who leaves there computer on when your on vacation. Thats Dumb!

Works Wonderful

Pros
Works extremely well between my iMac and ipad. The best part of my experience with Polkast was a few days age and I had a problem updating the App on the IPad, there customer service was stellar and took a personal intrest in fixing my problem. I do not get this level of customer service from companies that the software cost $600-$700. Download this you will love how it works!!
Cons
None so far
