Open your files right in the chat
Send Dopppel a file, ask about it, and open it again any time. No digging through your downloads.
You send Dopppel a lease, a long PDF or a page of notes. You ask a few questions. Then you want to check one line yourself. But the file is somewhere in your downloads, with a name you do not remember.
Now you can tap the file in the chat and read it right there. On a computer it opens next to the chat. On a phone it fills the screen, and Back takes you to the chat. There is a button to copy the words and a button to download it.
Ask first, then check the page yourself
Dopppel reads pictures, PDFs, Word files, spreadsheets, PowerPoint slides and plain text files. A photo works too. Take a picture of a receipt, a page or a sign and ask about it. Dopppel can tell you what a file says, what it means, or what the numbers add up to.
Say you send a PDF of the rules for your new apartment. You ask what it says about pets, and Dopppel tells you. Want to read that part with your own eyes? Tap the file, and the words are right there beside the answer.
What does this say about pets?
Dopppel
It says cats and small dogs are allowed if you tell the office first.
Tap the file to read that part yourself.
The file stays part of the chat
Dopppel keeps the file in mind for the rest of the chat. You can talk about ten other things, come back, and ask again. It still knows what was in it.
Pasting a big block of text works too. It turns into a small "Pasted text" card. Tap the card to read it, or tap "Paste as text" to put the words back in the message box.
A few things to know
For Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files, you see the words only. To see how the file really looks, download it. A scan or a photo of pages offers the download instead. On a chat someone shared with a link, files only download.
Older .doc, .xls and .ppt files do not go through, and neither does a Keynote file. A picture can be up to 20 MB, and any other file up to 25 MB. For a very long file, Dopppel reads the first part and its answer says so. It is worth asking if it got to the part you mean.
Sending files needs a free account, so sign in first. They do not work in a temporary chat.
Tap the + to send your first file
Tap the + in the message box and pick "Photos and files", or on a phone, "Take a photo". You can also drag a file straight in. Ask your question in plain words. Later, tap the file in the chat to open it again. It is free, like everything in Dopppel.
