Please add Password protection

Hello TC,

Thanks for posting your feedback here. Yes, that is a good point, we will add this to our todo list and hopefully get it done for the next release of the app.

In the meantime there is another mechanism that could work instead of a password to protect the transfer web page a bit more. You could change the port number that our app uses to serve the web page to make it more complicated to "sniff" and find the transfer page.

Open the 'Settings' app on your iPhone/iPad and scroll down until you find the settings for our app ('Transfer'). Then change the port number to a number that you choose between 1024 and 9999. This could serve as your 'pin' to access the website. Please note that after changing the port number the address will also change and will end with a different number (currently by default is '8080').

This is not a very strong security mechanism as they can still scan all ports on the device IP address but it will at least make it more complicated.

Also, please note that your photos are only accessible while you run Photo Transfer App. If you close the app the website will not longer be available as the transfer web page is generated by our app only while running on your device.

I hope this is helpful. Thanks again for your feedback and let us know if you have any other suggestion or comment.

Kind regards,

Enrique
