      That great, if you’re both connected to the same WiFi network and LocalSend comes pre-installed on both of your devices.

        What does it need to be pre-installed?

          Because people with iPhones, famously, will refuse to even try to include anyone without an iPhone if it means they need to do anything whatsoever, such as install a new app

          Because no one is going to install an app just to receive a photo from you.

            You think it’s single use? Only works the one time? Really?

              People are hesitant to install apps. But, when you do install it for them. They delete them immediately thinking its useless and and will waste battery for no reason.
