Flick. for Android

I spotted this fun app on my Android and then downloaded on my OS and IOS. I had hopes for a much easier way to share pictures across my devices. Flicking them back and forth was fast, easy, and fun. The problems was what to do with them on my Android after arrival. The pictures could only be saved one item at a time by opening the menu and selecting ‘SAVE’ and continuing that long drawn out process. Could not do multiples. I was disappointed that I could not drag and drop the files into a finder window. Any attempt to do so closed the Flick desktop. Files could only be dealt with in the long burdensome multistep way. The worst experience was saving 1 of many similar picture files but needing to create a folder for it. Buy hitting 'Create folder’ as we are accustomed to doing within all other application, Flick froze. I had to ‘Force Quit’ the Flick application to shut it off and thus off of my desktop where it intended to stay.

Concept/Potential 5 stars. Execution Android to iOS 2 stars (that damned black bar that obscures everything and doesn't respond). Execution iOS to Android 4 stars. Clarity/Quality/Completeness of "manual" 1 star iOS good. OS X iff-y. Directions dreadful. Final verdict--3 stars

I have been looking for a simple way to share files back and forth between my phone and laptop easily and quickly- this application does that very well, and has a very simple interface. The interface on the Android could be better though- for example I think you should be able to simply drag the file you flicked straight onto the desktop rather than having to ctrl click and open or save the file from there. Also the black bar at the top of the screen on the Android app blocks off the menubar- making the application hard to quit. The developer should utilize the menubar rather than cover it up. However, the app does what it says well and I have no major complaints with it.

Great User Interface, except the black bar at the top became unclickable and I couldn't access anything on my menu bar because it was just frozen. -Glitches Constantly More than Usually -Cannot close -The Black Bar that is supposedly locked onto the menu bar can be moved anywhere showing cheap design qualities -No one has heard of this app so why would you Flick if you could use DropBox or just the Classic Bluetooth -This is a wannabe variant of Bump, N-Share, or "Nearby Device Sharing" that comes prior to Mountain Lion OS X. Honestly: Hands Down a good start. But this app lacks alot of improvements. It's very hard to compete against other Drag & Drop Apps out there such as "Dropzone" but this app needs to warm up before it can enter a league of Productiveness with the big guys.

OK, seriously. the sharing between computer and device is nearly flawless. Love this application. They have done a better job of it than some others have (Instashare). Great job
