hello and thank you for your answer.
first, i love your software... i was looking for it since 5 months...and i am reelly sorry that i didn't discover it sooner.
very very good job !!!
wouldn't it be better if the client launch when i turn on the phone ???
so when i launch the program on the pc, it connects automaticly.... (if it is possibile that the client on the phone detect each time the desktop program trys to connect)
i also notice that when i close the program on my pc and i launch it one hour later.. i have to relaunch egain the client on the phone...
in my last message, i wanted to say that it would be good that when i launch the program on the pc... it connect to the phone witouth having to launch anything each time on the phone
But the best of the best... would be that anytime the phone connects to the wifi... myphoneexplorer connects automaticly to the pc without having to launch the pc program or the phone client.
my nokia worked like that with bluetooth but maybe this is not possible by wifi !

you are right... if anyone can connect to the phone when i am on wifi, it can be a risk but maybe if you put a password on the phone client... and we have to input a password on the program on the pc client?? (with ability to save the password so we don't have to input it each time ?)
it would be a good security improvment.
for the battery i don't know... does it use very much battery if the client is turning on the phone but it is not connected to the pc ???
(i am sorry my english is not good at all i hope you understand what i mean)

Yes, cause the client keeps WiFi alive
actually, my wifi is always turned on, when i am outside, my phone uses the 3g but each time i come home the phone detects automaticly my wifi and connects automaticly to my wifi routeur.
i think most people uses the wifi like that.
is this the same than when you say that the client keeps wifi alive ?
when you say that the client keeps wifi alive, will it be different and use more battery than the way i use the wifi on my phone ?

THank you for your answers.
i hope you will find a way because i think that most user would like that.
but i understand that maybe it is not as easy to do that than it is with bluetooth !!!

Following up on this;
People can use Tasker on android (search for it in the market) to automate the starting of myPhoneExplorer client when a known wifi network is found.
Works great, it first turns on wifi if I'm nearby my house, then searches for my ssid and when found, starts myPhoneExplorer. Then after 5 minutes, it closes MPE automatically.
Only problem is though, it won't automatically connect.
I have the program on my pc always running in the background and would wish that when the android client gets started, it initiates a sync. Now I have always have to open MPE on the pc and press F1, but it'd would be nicefor this to be fully automated...

Knowing is fine by me... just throw a huge window on both the pc as the device or something. But initiating is another thing. I simply forget to sync if it ain't going automatic. No prob if we need to verify a non-default setting on both pc and device or something, but the possibility would certainly be nice!

I would also like autosync.
Wasn't the older versions autosync? I used MPE for my SE K800i and loved it!
SMS-conversations from PC and stuff, always synced recent photos and calendar events ...
With Android I lost all that, but now I see the light!
Or so I thought, MPE isn't really the same.
1. I want to decide if MPE client should auto terminate after 15 minutes.
2. Auto sync when connected to a certain WiFi-network?
I believe (haven't tried yet) that Tasker might be able to start MPE client if given the correct circumstance, e.g. connecting to your home wifi.
Then enable the options in MPE on PC under
Settings -> MultiSync -> (Start MultiSync) -> if connection was initiated automatically
That should do the trick?
This however includes buying another app that you might not need for other purposes...

No. MPE client cannot initiate sync
Tasker works fine, start MPE if connected to certain SSID or even MAC of router, but as client cannot initiate sync nothing more happens.
You have to press F1 to connect.
