In response to the success of the service, the development team of BitTorrent Sync in San Francisco released the latest version 1.2. Originally BitTorrent Sync did not place data on the server unlike Dropbox and so the transfer speed was high, but in the latest version 1.2, the maximum transfer speed is doubled compared to the conventional 90 MB / s. According to the development team, "With the transfer rate rising, even 10GB files can be synchronized in less than 2 minutes." It is also compatible with iOS and it is now possible to transfer photos just taken and camera pictures.
