Sidecar App Lets You Share Data While on the Phone

A San Francisco-based startup called Sidecar is looking to make your phone calls a little smarter.
The company on Tuesday launched the Sidecar app for iPhone and Android smartphones that lets users make free VoIP calls, as well as share live videos, photos, contact information, and location data. What makes Sidecar different from other apps is that it lets you share data while you talk on the phone. So, you don’t have to end your phone call, or fire up another app to share photos or location data.
