Users can now bump their phone on their computer’s spacebar to transfer photos and share them on social media sites.

Transferring pictures from a mobile phone to a computer can be done by using the new Bump web interface and the mobile application.

Photos transferred by Bump are uploaded to Bump’s website when can be dragged and dropped onto an individual computer.

Users can also create links to photos so friends and family can easily access them.

The company said evolving the mobile app for computer was based on its users’ needs.

"When we talk to people who use Bump, they often tell us how they love that Bump just makes sense to them," said Bump on their official blog. "If they want to share a photo with a friend or family member, they don’t have to understand complicated technology — they can just bump their phones together. But one of their biggest complaints is that it is hard to get photos off their phone and onto their computer.

"Syncing is complicated and often requires a cable you just can’t find, and people are fed up with emailing their own photos to themselves. Users would often jokingly tell us, "Bump is great; if only my computer could Bump too! So we built it."

There service runs in a users’ browser so there is no software to install. Bump is compatible with modern versions of web browsers including Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

The mobile application boasts more than 90 million users and has seen more than 600 million pictures transferred using its service.
