Popular mobile app Bump announced an update Thursday that makes it easy to transfer files, presentations, or even your contact list from your mobile phone to your computer.
With the update, you can “Bump” photos, videos, files and contacts from your phone to your computer by pointing your browser to a special URL and tapping the spacebar on the computer. Selected files will be transferred from your phone to your computer where they then be saved or vice versa.
Backing content up to your computer from your phone is something that can currently be done a host of different ways.
“Those solutions work really well for people who take the initiative to set them up correctly,” Bump CEO Dave Lieb told Mashable. “Bump appeals to a much broader market of people.”
Where Bump stands out is in its simplicity and its ability to let you make the transfer without having to set up any special software on your phone or computer outside of the app.
Files transfers are initially being capped at 30MB. Lieb says the company will be monitoring how people use the feature and may increase the allowable file size later.
You can try the feature by downloading Bump on your mobile phone, and pointing your browser to this URL.
