Why we developed Tob?
When I want to send my pc files to my phone, I have some choice in hand, such as smb, or other app supports file transfer with an installed client on pc.
If I use smb, I need to open smb, then log in smb server on my phone, after that, I need to close the smb again.
For just one image share to my phone, I operate too much I think, if I use other file app, I maybe need to log in app, and pc client, both of them is overwhelm.
So, Tob has a tool "Wifi File Transfer".
The idea for wifi file transfer function should be the core conception for Tob, such tool may not be on every device but it is quite useful when you need it, or else you may have to waste of time to operate more steps to get the jobs done.
Tob also add a live OCR, or OCR from your photos.
OCR maybe a builtin function on some device, but some other devices may be not, if it is such a situation, we think we could put the tool into Tob.
As OCR maybe frequently needed or it is useful in our life.
QRCode function is added into Tob same as OCR's reason, when we want to scan a QRCode, we could use Tob, then we know what the QRCode contains, if it is a url link, we could also open the link directly from Tob.
Also, we maybe need to generate some QRCode, any text or urls, we could generate a QRCode with Tob.
Simple Notes should not be in Tob, but when we get the OCR Text, or QRCode contents, we maybe want to save the information, so add simple notes just for conveniently saving those contents.
Image Style Transfer added as a simple way, just select any two images, we could transfer one's style to another, isn't it a magic from AI?
I think it maybe useful as OCR or Wifi File Transfer, so I added it.
There must be some other functions which is not on every device while is very useful, we hope that you could let us know by email info@soulyin.com
Notes: If the function is a heavy work, leads Tob to be complex App, that function may not be suitable for Tob, as Tob wants to collect simple , useful , lacks of on device functions only.
For now, I have no idea for other functions, when a new function added into Tob, it should have follow features:
1. The device does not have the function builtin.
2. Other apps should not have an already very convenient same function.
Simple notes does not meet feature 1, it is companion function indeed, if there's no QRCode or OCR, it will not be there too.
For QRCode, it is truly there's many other apps have same function, while the function maybe limited or customized for those apps.
Tob's QRCode could recognize any QRCode contents, it does not limit the ability, for example, some app does not support pure text content QRCode, so when you scan the QRCode, you may get nothing from that app, that's why Tob added QRCode function.
If you have found such kind function meets feature 1 and 2, we hope that you could let us know, and enrich Tob's function.
