Re: Repeating tap tap see results

2014-01-24 Thread Dmitriy Konopatskiy
Roy,

Carol asked if the images are stored in the phone. My response was directed
at that question. The images identified are not stored in the device unless
the user goes into Share and selects "Save to Camera Roll." NOTE: This
feature was added months after this discussion took place.

Best Wishes,
TapTapSee Team

Re: Information on how TapTapSee works

2013-02-06 Thread Dmitriy Konopatskiy
Alan,

I'm glad that you're having so much fun with TapTapSee. That's really great
to hear!

TapTapSee uses a combination of a database algorithm and crowdsourcing.
Just so you know we advice against taking pictures of personal information,
such as Credit Cards, Driver License, etc..

Best Regards,
Dmitriy
