Files Connect

Apple iPad is not only great for doing business and playing games on the go, it can be used to store files as well. You can think of it as a giant flash drive. There are many ways to share files between your iPad and computers. Files Connect is a premium application that makes the process a whole lot easier. It allows users to connect their iPad to their computers wirelessly and start manipulating files on it right away.

Files Connect turns your iPad into a wireless network drive. It automatically shows up in your network places on Windows and makes transferring files between your computer and Files Connect easy. The app supports Dropbox, MobileMe iDisk, and Box.net as well.

Files Connect does not limit you to any type of file per se. You can work with videos, audio files, and images. Microsoft office and PDF files are supported too. The app can handle zip files. It is compatible with Airprint. Simultaneous transfers and multiple server connections are supported as well.

Files Connect is one powerful file management application for your tablet. It makes transferring files between your tablet and computer a piece of cake. The support for cloud-based systems is a huge plus. SSH authentication and password protection are a big plus. This is well worth a look for anyone moving files between their iOS devices and their computer. The app did crash on us a couple of times while transferring large files. But those are nothing a small patch can’t fix.
