Share 100x the Photos of AT&T MMS, 20x the Photos of an iPhone E-Mail Instantly, Then Watch Friends Scroll and Save With Revolutionary New iPhone App

DANBURY, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pointy Heads Software, rising innovators in mobile-to-mobile sharing, today unveiled Knocking, a new form of communication redefining the way mobile users share moments. Knocking eliminates the ‘upload, send, download’ process, establishing live, device-to-device connectivity regardless of proximity or other barriers. Knocking Live Pic Sharing, the first in a series of Knocking apps - available for download today - creates an instant device-to-device connection allowing one iPhone user to securely control, browse, and save another user’s photo albums as the other watches it happen, live.

Knocking is an entirely new form of communication on the iPhone. With Knocking, someone is at the door of your mobile device. Let them in to connect in ways never before possible. Simply ‘knock’, then share moments live with friends or family.

“The future is about friends sharing moments while mobile technology enables everything we do. Knocking is a breakthrough empowering friends to share moments like never before,” said Jim Montalto, co-founder of Pointy Heads Software. “Knocking Live Pic Sharing lets you watch your friends and loved ones flip through your photos to see and save your experiences, live. With Knocking, you can save dozens of photos in a matter of seconds.”

Existing ‘photo-sharing’ apps are merely ‘photo-sending’ apps that rely on antiquated technology or close proximity between devices – most require users to upload photos then transmit them using the internet while another person waits to download. Knocking Live Pic Sharing eliminates that process, letting users share up to 100 photos instantly. With Knocking Live Pic Sharing, just select an album, ‘knock’ your friends and watch live as they control your iPhone, flipping through your pictures and saving them to their own device, instantly regardless of distance.

Knocking Live Pic Sharing also includes a ‘Facebook Connect’ feature which automatically publishes stories on users’ ‘Knocks’ in real-time. As the first in a series of Knocking apps from Pointy Heads, Knocking Live Pic Sharing is available for download in the social networking category of the Apple app store, free for the first 50,000 users.

How Knocking Works:

It’s simple. ‘Knock’, then share:

  • Open Knocking Live Pic Sharing

  • Set up account

  • Create an album

  • Knock a friend

  • Watch your friend control the album and save your photos.
