Bitcasa Application on Android and Windows 8

Bitcasa
Inc.
released its Android
and
Windows
8/RT
apps.

The mobile apps
allow instant streaming of music, photos, videos, and documents from
the Bitcasa Infinite Drive. It is available for new and existing
Bitcasa users on Google Play, Windows Store. Mac and iOS apps will be
available in January.

"With
our mobile app releases, we are now making all of your data easily
available from mobile and PC/Mac clients while taking the security of
that data very seriously"

Users can backup and
consolidate their files and media into one Infinite Drive. Infinite
Drive acts like an external drive that users are familiar with,
except that it never runs out of space and is accessible from
anywhere and any device.

With the new
Infinite Drive and mobile apps,
Bitcasa users get immediate benefits:

• Instant
  Streaming, Access Anywhere:
  Users can play music albums, watch videos in various formats, view
  and share photo albums, and read documents from anywhere. Instant
  streaming allows users to stream their music, videos, and photos to
  mobile and desktop devices without having to sync or store files
  locally on each devices.

• Infinite Storage:
  The Infinite Drive acts as a virtual external drive that expands with
  the user’s storage needs without worrying about running out of space
  again.

• Safe Backup:
  Backup gives peace of mind. Users can mirror their content from all
  their computers to Bitcasa, and access it anywhere. All files and
  backups are protected with client-side encryption,meaning that only
  users can see and access their data. Users can retrieve files with
  time-capsule versioning by date.

• Share Content:
  With one click, users can share a file or a folder with their friends
  and family – Bitcasa or non-Bitcasa users – regardless of file size.
  For sharing on mobile devices, users can also set up alerts to
  protect against large downloads that might affect their mobile
  bandwidth charges.

• Get Organized:
  The
  software categorizes users’ data into Music, Photos, Videos, and
  Documents. Users no longer have to worry about managing and
  organizing their files – the same way they do not have to worry about
  storage capacity limits.

"With
our mobile app releases, we are now making all of your data easily
available from mobile and PC/Mac clients while taking the security of
that data very seriously,"
said Tony Gauda, co-founder and CEO of Bitcasa. "By
announcing our cross-platform support today, we are offering our
global users secure access on all computers, mobile devices, or Web
browsers by streaming from the cloud while allowing them to keep the
data they access more often localized on their hard drive. With an
Infinite Drive, mobile users can automatically store and access their
photos from any device. It also means that they can send large videos
and albums to friends and family, as well as watch videos in multiple
formats. It’s an infinite, organized drive in the cloud. Users don’t
have to manage it and it’s much safer than their desktop or laptop."
