GlobalSCAPE's TappIn Launches New Remote Access App for Amazon's Kindle Fire

Marketwired
TappIn, Inc., the leading innovator in digital content access and
file sharing for the mobile community, announced today the launch
of its new Kindle Fire personal cloud service app. The new app is
TappIn's first product release since becoming a subsidiary of
secure information exchange leader GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (NYSE Amex:
GSB) earlier this month.
TappIn makes users' remotely stored content -- whether it's on a
home or work computer -- available on all Kindle Fire devices,
allowing them to securely access and share files anytime, anywhere.
The application turns the world's most popular e-reader into a
secure portal to obtain content safely and securely when connected
to any wireless network. Social functions include access to mixed
media playlists and the ability to share and manage unlimited
distribution of locally stored files on Facebook.
Unlike remote access products that consume mass amounts of
storage, TappIn makes content available through a secure cloud
pathway, thereby allowing users to "tap in" to their storage
location, wherever that may be. TappIn's unique cloud access portal
means users can obtain content without having to download, save,
and manage it on their mobile device. This method of delivery not
only saves storage space, it ensures content remains secure and
private on the user's home or work computer or other storage
device. The new app for the Kindle Fire platform includes all of
TappIn's latest capabilities, including security features already
available on the iOS and Android platforms.
Key features include:
- TappIn SecureShare™: Users can easily
customize TappIn's enhanced SecureShare™ authentication
capabilities to protect sensitive information by providing
selective access and requiring specific recipients to login
securely before viewing private files. Users can choose to
authenticate via login or share files via public access with a link
to the photo, file, or folder. Using the app, users can also easily
import contacts from Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail, and other email
providers directly into TappIn, providing one-click sharing.
- SocialShare™: Share photos, files, or
folders from your device directly to Facebook. A link to the file
and a thumbnail of the photo is posted to the user's Facebook wall,
along with any comment to Facebook "Friends." Files are not
uploaded to Facebook, but rather remain securely stored on the
user's computer, allowing for easy control and removal.
- Enhanced A La Carte Playlist™: With
TappIn, Kindle Fire users now have full access to their entire
music library. TappIn's A La Carte Playlist™ capability allows
Apple users to generate playlists from multiple iTunes and MP3
libraries. With one click, the TappIn app populates a list of all
folders that contain music files, and allows users to select from
those folders to create a single, unique playlist. TappIn's Now
Playing™ feature enables users to stream music or browse photos or
documents while simultaneously using other applications. Streaming
access also eliminates the need to download and manage the content
on your mobile device, saving time and storage space, and
safeguarding privacy.
"The Kindle Fire device is blurring the lines between the
e-reader and tablet, allowing us an even greater convergence of our
personal and professional lives," said Chris Hopen, president of
TappIn. "TappIn's new app allows users to maximize the innovative
multitasking capabilities, social, and collaboration features of
this device by providing access to remotely stored digital content,
regardless of system, file type, or content location right on their
Kindle Fire."
TappIn's app for the Kindle Fire is available in two editions
designed to cater to the needs of individuals and businesses. The
TappIn Light version is available free of charge from the Amazon
Appstore for Android, while the TappIn Standard edition is
available for $23.99/year and offers consumers unlimited access to
any digital file, regardless of size.
