Hi folks,

I want to take a photo on my nexus5 and have it display on my nexus10 instantly. I want to use it tomorrow at work for red nose day so that people can have their photo taken and then have it displayed on my nexus10 which will be hooked up to a TV for all to see. Something not a million miles away from when you have your photo taken on a roller coaster then see it on the tv's straight after.

Like I said, I need this tomorrow so getting a chromecast is out of the question (i've seen some chromecast examples online). Does anyone know of an app based idea OR something that would work with the chrome browser (i could hook a laptop up instead)

Cheers in advance.
 
Use a cloud sync app like Dropbox. Have both devices connected to internet and Dropbox backup on your phone active. It will upload immediately and be accessible from your tablet. Although using a laptop with Dropbox would be easier I think for the receiving end.

I wanted it to appear on the screen automatically as each photo was taken if that makes sense? Like when you take a photo on your phone, the image that is captured appears straight away on the tablet.
 
What he wants is sorta like an "Instant Camera" but it instantly displays on the TV rather than a peice of paper.
 
You can put a DLNA server on the 5 and a DLNA player on the tablet.

There are a lot of them out there, I don't know if you can find a player that automatically updates what it sees in the 5's gallery though.

Maybe look for a slide show function, just not sure.
