The only way I cant think of it's using FTP.

you send your pictures of Android to that server and the iOS can download those files from that FTP

Hi

first, you'll have to define 'best'...

it all depends of the requirements of your application.

Personally, I have a tendency to PREFER using a DB replication system
(wxreplication, in my case), with the image embedded in the DB (HFSQL or
other) on both sides in a blob...

But you can just create a webservice and encode your image in base64 for
the transport, by example, and there are several other methods...


Best regards

maybe you can share the image via bluetooth with the iOS one...maybe

you can use this fuction
StartShare()

The user can select the app that want to use to share the picture or document, there he could choose bluetooth and then send it to the one that is pair up.

here is the link:

good Luck my fellow developer
