After testing the new DeskConnect for the past couple of weeks, it’s impossible not to be impressed with its simplicity and speed.ĭeskConnect’s premise is easy to grasp: it’s a web service that moves data between devices in near real-time thanks to the cloud and push notifications.

With a major redesign and adoption of modern iOS technologies, DeskConnect’s comeback, launching today on the App Store, brings an even faster way to share documents, photos, and just about anything across multiple devices. They never forgot about DeskConnect, though. However, after Weinstein and Workflow co-founders Conrad Kramer and Nick Frey began working on the app that would later win an Apple Design Award, DeskConnect was put on the shelf so the team could focus on their powerful take on iOS automation.

#DESKCONNECT REPLACEMENT MAC MAC#
Based on a cloud service and built with speed in mind, DeskConnect predated Apple’s Continuity efforts with AirDrop in iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite when it launched in the summer of 2013, DeskConnect was featured by Apple on the Mac App Store and it ranked in the top charts for several consecutive days. Originally born out of a hackathon, DeskConnect was a Mac and iOS utility to speed up the process of transferring bits of text and files between devices. Before he co-founded Workflow, Ari Weinstein was the creator of DeskConnect.
