Late last week I was introduced to a project called Swÿp which allows you to move files (such as Photos for example) across iOS devices by simply performing a swipe gesture from the sending devices screen across to the recipients screen.

Watch the promotional video below, it does it far more justice than my own description.

It uses peer to peer technology (such as WiFi or Bluetooth) and theoretically will also allow cross platform file transfers, something that will likely follow.

It looks great and is almost certainly a project I’m going to play with this year.
