Hi Emilio, Tonido has been discussed quite a lot a few months ago, but of course it is always a good idea to revisit certain popular topics. The first question that would come to my mind is whether it is possible to set a passcode for the app on an iOS device. I could see a potential security risk here because if you you're your iPhone or it was stolen and you have information on your computer which is private and most of us do, then somebody suddenly might have access to that. I know that Tonido only works if your computer is on and the Tonido app is also installed on your PC or Mac which means you can probably change the password or uninstall the app on the computer to stop it from being accessed, but if your phone was stolen somebody could potentially get at information by the time you can do this and the only way to prevent this would be either if your iPhone was protected with a passcode to begin with or if the app could be protected since many people don't want the inconvenience of having to enter a passcode everytime they unlock their phone.

Tonido is an accessible and free way to move and share files, which is voiceover compatible for Mac OS X and the iPhone. The macintosh client resides in the menubar, but the iPhone app is where the benefits of this app are seen. The iPhone app recognizes my entire computer and allows me to access external drives also. The web site is accessible and making an account took me less than 5 minutes. The iPhone client will prompt you for the account credentials and a specific URL, which is necessary to view your computer. Please note that the URL is going to take the form of http://username.tonidoid.com. This will need to be entered into the URL section when logging into your account from the iPhone. (This URL can just be copied from the Tonido support e-mail you will receive after an account has been created). If you Google "tondo" it will be the first link in the results section. Hope this has been helpful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group. Post a new message to VIPhone by emailing viphone@googlegroups.com.
