Since then, we\u2019ve synced over 30 petabytes of data; growing to <strong>over a million monthly active users. And our product has grown up, too. Today, we\u2019re happy to announce Sync 1.2. Here\u2019s what\u2019s new.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><strong>Sync is now 2X faster<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sync skips the cloud to deliver files faster than server-based alternatives, like Dropbox. And with 1.2, we\u2019ve boosted Sync\u2019s speed performance. The app\u2019s been clocked at 90 MB\/s on the LAN. Which means your 10 GB file will be synced in less than two minutes. (Note that speed is dependent on your Internet connection, and will vary.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sync for iOS7 and iPad<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Good news for Apple fans. We\u2019ve updated Sync to include new design, improved connection speed, iOS7 compatibility, and a native iPad app. We\u2019ve also added to the iOS feature set. You can now send and sync files in other apps using Sync, and save media from your Sync folders direct to your camera roll.<\/p>\n<p>Sync 1.2 features a number of other performance improvements and bug fixes. Looking to build something on top of Sync?
