Smith Micro Software, Inc. has released SendStuffNow for Apple’s iPhone and iPad. The free App enables iPhone and iPad users to easily and securely send large files, track the status of pending file deliveries and create new invitations to allow additional users to access files that have already been uploaded. Now, regardless of location, consumers and professionals can create, access and manage shared file links with the tap of a screen. SendStuffNow for the iPhone and iPad also makes it possible to upload and share photos and videos captured on these devices.
The SendStuffNow App provides customers with the most secure way to deliver files over the Internet. When the application is launched, users simply select and upload the video, image or document file that needs to be shared. Those receiving files via SendStuffNow only need to click on links to files embedded in an email to download them through a Web browser, making sending and receiving files simple. SendStuffNow allows consumers to store and transmit files up to 2GB in size.
“In an increasingly mobile world, we understand that our customers require convenient and sometimes instant access to files, regardless of their physical location,” said William W. Smith, Jr., President and CEO of Smith Micro Software. “We developed SendStuffNow with the mobile user in mind, and are excited to offer an easy-to-use solution that makes it possible for businesses and individual end-users to seamlessly and securely send files from virtually any iPhone or iPad. The release of our iPhone and iPad applications serves as the first in a series of steps Smith Micro plans to take to expand the mobile reach of SendStuffNow.”
SendStuffNow takes advantage of Smith Micro’s 20 years of experience in file compression and encryption through its use of patented StuffIt technology. StuffIt uses AES 256-bit encryption technology to protect the files in an archive. StuffIt also protects the metadata stored in the archive to prevent costly security holes left open by other file transfer solutions. The SendStuffNow Web service uses an RSA 2048-bit key and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt all communications between the server, client and Web browser.
