It is a great time to explore your NAS drives. NAS Detector helps you to find all information about your NAS devices from network address to detailed service description. Network-attached storage (NAS) is a file-level computer data storage server connected to a computer network providing data access to a heterogeneous group of clients. NAS is specialized for serving files either by its hardware, software, or configuration. It is often manufactured as a computer appliance – a purpose-built specialized computer. NAS systems are networked appliances which contain one or more storage drives. NAS uses file-based protocols such as NFS (popular on UNIX systems), SMB/CIFS (Server Message Block/Common Internet File System) (used with MS Windows systems), AFP (used with Apple Macintosh computers), or NCP (used with OES and Novell NetWare).

About

Pin Me App

Features
Read full description

Pin Me helps friends and family share their locations in private groups across iPhone and Android. Create a group, invite people you trust, and choose when to share. Location sharing starts only when you start a session, and you can stop it at any time. See group members on an Apple Maps map with their latest update time and location accuracy. Features: - Private groups with invitation links and manual invitation IDs. - Encrypted location coordinates and group avatars. - Time-limited sharing sessions with configurable update intervals and distance thresholds. - A default avatar and optional avatars for individual groups. - Background sharing when you enable it and grant Always location permission. - Group owner controls and group deletion notices. Location updates depend on connectivity, permissions, and iOS background scheduling. Force quitting the app prevents background updates until you reopen it. Version 2 introduces a redesigned native iOS experience and a new sharing system. Groups and invitations from version 1 must be recreated; invite your group members again after updating.
