Do you ever find yourself wanting to quickly present photos from your phone on a friend's TV, PC or tablet without sending the photos? Like when traveling, visiting family, or at work? How much would you be willing to pay to solve this pain point?
Would $2 be too expensive for an app that instantly casts your phone's photos to bigger screens over WiFi, keeping them local with no uploads to the cloud required and no registration?

@entreeden Also, you can predefine a presentation (album), so you'll need to just select the album instead of selecting the photos each time you want to present them. And, of course, everything is stored locally, with no account or uploading to the cloud involved.
