Facebook app policy doesn’t like the underlying premise of PicPush

Posted by declanshanaghy in Android, PicPush on April 21st, 2011

If you’ve been having problems using Facebook with PicPush it’s probably because of this…

The whole idea behind PicPush is to have an app on your phone that automatically uploads your media as it is captured, without any special intervention. Facebook doesn’t like this idea so they keep deauthorizing PicPush for use on Facebook.

Therefore PicPush 3.4.5 has a new preference under the “uploads” section. The setting is labelled “Ask before upload” and it is enabled by default on new installs and upgrades. With this setting on you will have to manually approve each item before PicPush will upload it. You can approve a single item by touching the preview image in the upload Queue and hitting “Send” or you can approve all by clicking “Menu” -> “Send All”. If you want to go back to the old behavior and automatically upload all items without approval simply turn the setting off.

Droid X Auto Upload Problems in PicPush (and possibly other phones)

Posted by declanshanaghy in Android, PicPush on October 2nd, 2010

This is just a quick note for users out there who are having trouble with auto upload not working on the Droid X and possibly some other phones.

PicPush enables auto upload by default for image and video folders called “Camera”.

Motorola, for some odd reason, decided to store pics on the Droid X in a folder called “100Media”, hence PicPush won’t automatically enable this folder for auto upload.

It can easily be fixed by navigating through the preferences and making sure 100Media is selected for auto upload.

This is setup in “Preferences” -> “Auto Scanner” ->”Image/Video Folders to monitor”

(A fix will be included for this in the app in the future update)

OK we admit it! The user interface for adding/editing destinations in PicPush was tricky to figure out! (To say the least!) We’ve known for a while that it was a less than optimal solution. But last week steps were finally taken to resolve it. Read on for all the gorey details.

CoverFlow in PicPush Transfers = KOOOOOL! :-)

Posted by declanshanaghy in PicPush on January 24th, 2010

Not too long ago I came across a coverflow widget for Android and thought, wow that looks brilliant! Given that the transfers tab of PicPush uses the Android Gallery widget I decided to drop it in and see how it would look.

PicPush 3.1.0 – New Plugin Framework

Posted by declanshanaghy in PicPush on August 5th, 2009

The latest update to PicPush includes a plugin framework for 3rd party applications to listen in on PicPush upload activity and manipulate the data in any way that can be imagined.

The first user of this framework, PicPush Tweeter, listens to and records every time PicPush completes an upload. It will then post tweets with links to the posted pics and video. URL shortening provided by Bit.Ly

The future for this framework is promising, we plan to have multiple other plugins to do things like post to your Facebook wall, collect statistics about uploads and even do the nightly dishes.

Download PicPush, the multimedia syndication Android application from the Android Market today.
