Scansfer

Scansfer is a phone-to-phone data transfer app utilizing QR code technology to allow you to simply scan and transfer files (up to 6 MB), Apps, Contacts, Bookmarks, and now, Money using your PayPal account.

Sending Files:

The Scansfer app securely transfers files from your phone to Scansfer.com, and generates a private download key, only accessible by scanning a distinct QR code. The QR code can then be scanned from any other mobile device equipped with a camera and bar code scanner app to instantly download the file. The app can also transfer files from your phone to Scansfer.com to be downloaded to a PC, plus the website allows you to generate QR codes to transfer files from your computer to your phone.

Sending Apps:

Scansfer provides two methods for sharing apps:
1. If an app is available in the Android Market, Scansfer allows you to send a quick download link to other Android phones to download the latest version of the app.
2. You can also send the original install package (APK) allowing you to share any free app installed on your phone. Note: this feature is NOT to be used to share paid apps. Please read all license agreements for your apps to make make sure you are allowed to share them.

Sharing Contacts and Bookmarks:

Scansfer can also generate QR codes to share Contacts from your address book as well as Bookmarks from your browser.

PayPal Payments:

Now you can use Scansfer to generate QR code payment requests from your phone. Simply enter a brief description of the transaction and an amount, and have the person paying you scan the QR code. Payment QR codes can be scanned using any mobile device with a bar code scanner (the person sending the payment does not need to have Scansfer installed).
