I agree it would be easier, but we are not living in a free world. Everything is a walled garden. Sharing is pure fantasy. Everything is closed, especially on iOS, but Android is not that much of different. So Velo enables sharing outside these ecosystems.

When it comes to the name, I realised Velo has something to do with bikes, after I came up with a name. There is a story behind the name I just posted in this thread.
