Gestures for sharing data between devices in close physical proximity

摘要

The subject technology provides embodiments for sending digital content between proximate computing devices. The computing devices may each have varying display characteristics depending on the specifications of the device. A first computing device may display an interface including representations of digital items. A user may perform a gesture on a touch-sensitive display screen on the first computing device, which selects at least one digital item for sharing with another proximate computing device, in physical contact with the first computing device, in a direction of the gesture. Some embodiments further provide sending a digital item to multiple proximate computing devices using a multi-touch gesture. The multiple proximate computing devices may each have varying display characteristics.
