Why People Love Kincast
Easy Sharing
Email links for private experience
It's your video. You control who can see it. Email loved ones links to their private website. Better yet, they won't have to create an account.
Post to Facebook
Want a bigger audience? Post it on Facebook. Even if you post on Facebook, you can still email links to your loved ones so your video doesn't get buried in their News Feed.
Family Engagement
Chat
Gives your loved ones an easy way to say thanks or engage amongst themselves. You’re the catalyst. You got the family chatting!
Video Message
More personal than phone calls and easier than writing. Let your loved ones see your face, hear your voice and feel like you’re right there with them. Video messages are perfect when visiting in person isn’t an option.
Fun
Flair
Kick up the fun factor and add Flair to your videos. Neat fames, music and titles jazz up the experience. Plus you’ll be able to reorder a playlist any way you like. (iPhone App)
Video Cards
Make birthdays, holidays or any “just because” moment even more special with a Video Card. They’re themed to make it easy. Add your own video message or select a few videos and you’ve just stepped it up! (iPhone App)
Timeline
Stroll through memory lane with the Timeline. Want to see just birthdays? Then filter on those. Either way you’ll love the journey.
Fast & Friendly
Sharing memory
Find yourself sharing with the same people? Kincast has a great memory and will pre-fill their names for you. (iPhone App)
Uploads in background
Why should you wait while your video is uploading? Or why should your video get compressed real tiny? Kincast doesn't make you do either. Compose and send your share email instantly. Doesn't even matter if you have a network connection. We'll queue your videos and upload them while you're doing something else — like maybe recording another video. Or, when you get back to civilization and have a network connection. (iPhone App)
Versatile
No size or length limits
Forget about “too long to send” error messages. We all like short videos but sometimes it can’t be done. And who wants to be on someone else’s stopwatch. With Kincast there are no size or length limits.
Upload video from any camera
Ok, we know everyone doesn’t have an iPhone. Or even if you do, you likely have other cameras with video on them. No problem. Get those videos onto your PC (usually with a USB cable) and use the Kincast Web App to upload them. Next time you open your Kincast iPhone App you’ll see those videos too.
Peace of Mind
Privacy First
They're your kids. They're your family. No one should be able to lurk uninvited. At Kincast, everything starts as private. Want to share? That's great. But you decide. You're in control.)
Safely Backed Up
Who can keep track of everything? All those DVDs, flash drives, miniDV tapes, shoeboxes, etc. And who can back up all this stuff? Answer is no one. And no one should have to. With Kincast, your videos are safely backed up in three separate professionally managed data centers. That's convenience, and more importantly, peace of mind!
Works For You
Smart Sleep Management
Never worry about your iPhone going to sleep while importing or watching a video. (iPhone App)
Trim
Ok, you might be very particular. Hey, sometimes we are too. You can trim your videos right in the Kincast iPhone app. (iPhone App)
Friends Filter
Isn’t it funny how when you share, soon enough your friends return the favor too. Thinking of someone? Tap or Click the Timeline Filter and see their shared videos.
Customizable
Tags
We know who we are. The super-organized ones. Always needing to order off the menu and customize things. Tags are for us. Tag any video inline while you’re sharing or later in the Manage section.
Reminders
Oh, it’s so easy to forget. We know we want to wish our nephew a Happy Birthday or send the grandparents some vacation video of the kids. We thought of it. But sometimes the day/week just blitzes by. Kincast Video Cards have built-in reminders to “tap you on the shoulder.” (iPhone App)
Plays Nice
Import
Let’s say you’ve already taken a bunch of video on the iPhone camera. Or, sometimes you use it because you like it. Or you touched it by "accident" or "habit." No worries, you can import videos from the iPhone Camera Roll into your Kincast account for easy sharing and safe back up. (iPhone App)
Incremental Uploads
Don’t you hate it when you’re uploading something and the internet connection dies and you have to start over? We do too. So we upload your videos in chunks. Leave the house and lose your WiFi connection. No worries. You won’t have to start over again. We’ll just start the upload from where it left off — automatically. (iPhone App)
WiFi Only
Oh no! No more unlimited data plans. If you're not one of the lucky ones with a "grandfathered" unlimited data plan, this is for you. Video files can be large and we don’t want you to be surprised with big data charges from your cellular company. So, by default, we send all uploads over WiFi. However, it only takes a swipe to turn off this option and enable uploads over 3G/4G. (iPhone App)
Organized
Smart Playlists
All those hundreds of files neatly organized in playlists for you. Automatically. View playlists by day, month, location or even your personal tags. You don’t have to lift a finger.
Activity Panel
Want to check if you shared the cheerleading video with Grandma? Or just curious to see if she was able to watch it. Check out the Activity Panel to see all the activity from your account. (Web App)
