[APP] CaastMe: Open hyperlink from Android to Computer the quickiest way

Product TLDR: Share hyperlinks from (almost) any apps to desktop browser with just a scan.
Play Store link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wyemun.caastme
Update ver 1.3 Support bookmarks management.
Story:
This is the first time I'm posting this on DevDB, looks awesomeee!
This project was mainly inspired by the way WeChat and the new WhatsApp scan to login (into the browser web app) feature.
I had this idea to re-purpose the same method into sharing hyperlink to the browsers. I know that there're tonnes of other ways to achieve the same thing, but I'm here to challenge quickest way.
This idea had actually just spawned randomly less than 30 hours ago, and I'm proud to announce that, I have COMPLETED IT (With proper UI as well!)
How to use:
The instructions are written in both the Android app and the website ( http://caast.me ) as well
Go to http://caast.me on your desktop browser (preferably Google Chrome or Firefox)
From any Android apps (which has a Share function), click the Share
Select "CaastMe" in the "Share Via" popup as the sharing medium.
A barcode scanning screen will appear. Scan the QRCode on the website which you just opened on the desktop browser.
MAGIC!
Features:
No addional installation on desktop
No authentication/login in any form
Can be used throughout many apps, such as Chrome, Youtube App, Reddit reader. (As long as there's a Share function)
Argubly the fastest way to open webpage from mobile to Desktop

This is neat -- it's not working on one of my devices, though. It starts fine, but as soon as the QR code stars coming into focus, CaastMe freezes and the following error keeps appearing in the logcat:
Code:
E/ (2463): HAL_PIXEL_FORMAT_2_V4L2_PIX::unmatched HAL_PIXEL_FORMAT color_space(0x11e)
That's on the i9500, although I'm using a custom ROM (Cyanogenmod 11). Let me know if there's anything more you need, cheers.

Thanks for the report Germainz, I will take a look of it now!

Update: CaastMe just got featured on AndroidPolice --> http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/01/29/caastme-clever-way-share-links-computer-android-device-using-qr-codes/

Version 1.1 Updates. CaastMe can now share text too! DDD

Nice app. It would be nice to be also able to share video links. Any plans on making it open source?

Updated to support bookmarks (v1.3)
Previous update (v1.2) to support History!

Very useful app, but the URL caast.me is no longer working! Why?

DESCRIPTION​
Lucid Colors is unlike most drawing apps as it focuses on providing an environment for creative drawings and invoking imagination for unique pieces of art. It includes creative features such as mirror modes and many effects. One very unique effect that sets this app apart from any other is it's ability to use audio input such as the microphone or playing music, to manipulate effects. Although it's main focus is not on general drawing, it still contains many features you'd find in a normal drawing app. For example it provides quick image editing from external images and layers.

I'm proud to introduce F privacy:​
How many times have you heard on the news that a certain software spied people that installed it in order to make more money with advertisements?
And how many times have you heard that a certain app didn't respect the privacy of their users?
Now you won't have these problems anymore with F Privacy!
F Privacy allows you to know if an app is spying you, using your data, or accessing your information, just with a click!
It's easy: you'll see a list with all your installed applications, the number and the description of all requested permissions. You'll have only to choose if keep or uninstall suspicious apps!
Some permissions aren't listed (so you see them like "com.android.permission.[something]")? You have only to send us them via email with its specific function, and it's all automated!
All this thanks to our special algorythm "F Simple Privacy" that allows you to unmask apps that steal your data in a simple way, and without giving app developers a way to elude F Privacy.
Enjoy privacy simply!
Please send your impressions, your suggestions, your (I hope there are none...) errors here!​
F.

I'll try it ?

I'm preparing an huge update!
A lot of new features, that will make my app from passive protectress to ACTIVE!
In addition, it will be completely stable, so no more betas!
------------------------
I'm talking with Google because I've found an huge protection and privacy problem, thanks to a coding gap. I'll let you be updated!
------------------------
Nobody still found the Easter egg! Be the first to send me a PM with the egg explained to get the app ad-free for FREE!
Enjoy privacy easily with F privacy! :highfive:

Update: Google answered me they won't fix the lack of code (that obviously I won't say). For this reason it will be harder for me to do the new promised features, because I will have to turn around of the codes. The new ETA is about 2 months. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
---------------------
PS: still no winner! No one found the Easter egg! Do you like the animation of the icons? [Cough-cough]
