A few weeks ago, after finding it very frustrating to share simple links/media between my phone and my laptop using online notes or WhatsApp Web, I got the idea of creating an app/service that allows users to share content very easily between multiple devices.
The idea is that you can share anything, with 1 or 2 clicks max, over the local network so no need to go through the internet. It can work for text, links, photos, videos, you name it.
I was thinking about a freemium model, with a free version containing a very basic set of features, and a premium version with more interesting capabilities.
There are other apps that do similar stuff (clipboard sharing apps for example), but it seems like they each suffer from certain issues, as seen in the negative comments on the GooglePlay store, so I want to do it better.
The problem is that most of the competing apps do it all for free.
Being a software engineer I'm already writing a prototype, but I'm curious about your thoughts.
Do you think this is a good market to dive into? How do I compete with completely FREE alternatives?
Thanks
