Intel Pair & Share for android Want to remotely stream photos on your computer screen via your smartphone/tablet? Then you must try Intel Pair & Share – Intel’s official photo-streaming client for Android and iOS. Initially released on the iTunes App Store, Intel Pair & Share has just made its way into the Android Market. As implied by its name, Intel Pair & Share connects your device with its desktop client (on PC) using a secure PIN and lets you share/stream images on your computer screen. All streaming is over a commonly shared Wi-Fi connection and what’s even better is that multiple users can hook up to the sharing mechanism and stream their images in full screen on a PC. Details after the break.
Such massive is the impact of modern-day feature-rich smartphones/tablets on our lives that even the likes of Intel – a renowned name in the world of CPU manufacturers - couldn’t resist joining the foray. The app, as expected from the product a company of such good reputation, has been able to impress quite a lot of users.As of now, the Intel Pair & Share desktop client works with Microsoft Windows 7 (32 and 64-bit) only and can be downloaded from Intel’s official Download Center for free. Both the desktop as well as the mobile client have an elegant design and are extremely simple to use. Just install the client on your PC, fire up the app on your device, establish a secure pair between both the clients using a PIN and start streaming your photos. Here’s a detailed guide of the entire process.
Once connected to a Wi-Fi network, all you need to do is launch the desktop and the mobile client. The mobile client automatically scans all available devices (computers) that are connected to the network. Tapping on a device name takes you to another screen where you must feed in the PIN generated by the desktop client (one time process only). Once the PIN is entered, the mobile client should establish a connection with the desktop app.
At the bottom of the mobile client’s main interface, you have all your local image directories displayed as thumbnails while all the underlying photos within a selected folder are displayed in the middle of the screen. Just tap on a picture of your liking to share it on the computer screen. Streaming speed may vary depending upon the size of the image as well as the strength of the network connection.
