Microsoft’s Xim has been updated to 1.2.1 on Windows Phone, and brings availability to everyone. So if you were in a country that didn’t have access to Xim before, you can go download the app now!
\
Additionally, the upgrade brings voice verification (in addition to verification via SMS) and bug fixes.

If you are unfamiliar with Xim, it is a project by Microsoft Research that brings a unique way to share pictures with people that don’t need to have the app installed. It accomplishes this by sharing links via SMS or email, to a browser ‘Xim’ session that offers a synced, and interactive slideshow of pictures. You can view pictures with up to 25 users simultaneously, each being able to interact with the slideshow.
\
The app is available on all three major platforms – Windows Phone, Android, and iOS. You can read our coverage of the app here, and about the lead designer here.
