Easy and Free transfer of information between devices via ALT-C

Remember the days when we used to have one television and everybody used to gather around and spend that time together. Now, that things have changed and we have multiple screen to ourselves, our computer system, tablet and the most important, our mobile, we have found something that takes a little step in keeping us connected without any physical medium, an application that allows us to pass information easily from one device to other without saving any data such as contact or without any link sharing. The name is ALT-C.

It’s very natural to come across any piece of information on your system and feel the urge to access that very same information on your mobile or tablet. At times there is some text that we feel like sharing with a team or just saving it in some other mobile device. Alt-c here takes care of that. It provides you with a very minimalistic yet user friendly interface to connect your device. Once the device is connected a person is free to select any piece of information and press the hotkey for alt c to do its work (which by default is alt+c) that information will be automatically transferred to your connected device.

WHEN CAN WE USE ALT-C?

Well depending upon your requirement, it is best suited for:

  • A team working on a project and wants to be connected in some sort of short term and instantaneous message sharing kind of service. 
  • ALT-C saves up a lot of time by directly passing the data to the configured devices and making it easier to access the information that one person finds useful and wants to share with others.
  • This service comes in handy when a you require a piece of information immediately on you mobile.

Let’s say you came across any particular piece of information on your system and you wish to send that info to some other person via any social media app, so instead of starting the web app of that social media service on your system, ALT-C provides you that information instantly on your mobile and now you can forward it.

To conclude I would like to say that this underrated application comes handy at the right moment. Once installed it runs in the background without consuming any large memory or anything. You can close the application and still it will perform its job running in the background. The one thing that I feel is that this service should allow transferring of image files as well as an expansion, that will increase its productivity and will be much more useful for the users.
