HomePipe Networks Launches on Google Android Platform
Consumers Can Now Use Android Devices to Access Their Home
Photos, Videos, Music, and Documents Without the Hassles of Uploading,
or Copying Files to the Cloud or Anywhere Else
SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwire) - HomePipe Networks (www.homepipe.net), the company that
lets you surf your home computer, announced today the public
availability of its Android application. Now, consumers with Android
mobile devices have a powerful solution to have simple and safe access
to home content from anywhere over 3G or Wifi. Today, all Android
customers can use HomePipe from their Android phone to have secure
access to everything on their home network without having to purchase
expensive and complex hardware, software, or cloud-based products. No
more uploading or copying required, this means that you have access to
all of your home photos, videos, music and files, from anywhere,
anytime.
Select Android users have been using early versions of the
HomePipe Android app with the existing HomePipe service and have been
extremely happy. "Having safe and reliable access to my personal and
business files that I keep on my home computer is critical for my hectic
schedule," says Vicki Olin, mother of two and business owner, as well
as an early HomePipe subscriber.
HomePipe: The Secure, Convenient Way to Access and
Share Home Files
The HomePipe Service which launched in March of 2010,
works with any firewall with no changes whatsoever, setup is instant,
and the service is free. The HomePipe software installs quickly on a
Windows PC or Apple Mac without any expensive or clumsy hardware. With
HomePipe, users don't need to move their home files or configure their
home network or laptop. Using the new HomePipe App on their Android
phone, users have instant access to everything they need for work or
pleasure.
And, unlike other cloud-based storage services, where users
are limited to a certain amount of storage, HomePipe is completely free
for all content. With HomePipe, people can access their content right
from their home network, which means users don't have to worry about
paying monthly fees to store content online or have to worry about
exceeding storage limitations that never seem to be enough.
HomePipe users enjoy the following benefits:
- Get convenient FREE access from any web browser, Android
Phone, iPhone, iPod touch or even iPad, anytime, anywhere.
- Never worry about forgetting an important file or
document at home.
- E-mail home pictures or business documents that are at
home right from your phone.
- Access videos without having to dumb down the quality to
meet a device's storage limit.
- View and share high quality photos without having to
waste time uploading or attaching them to Internet photo sharing sites.
"Android device adoption is
on an accelerating growth curve now, and HomePipe support for Android
was never a question for us given the extensive commitment by Google,
Verizon, T-Mobile, Motorola, HTC, and others," said Chris Hopen,
HomePipe Networks co-founder and CEO.
