Documents for the iPhone: the best manager of files and documents
Makradar Ios / / December 21, 2019
iOS standard functionality does not allow you to work with files and documents. The reason for this - the closed file system. However, Apple allows developers to fill this gap with the help of their own applications. The App Store is quite a lot of them, but only a few are worthy of attention. One of these successful applications - Documents by Readdle, has long been popular among iPad users. Recently, there was a version for the iPhone - let's see what happened.
Readdle has long been known for its quality office applications, such as Calendar, Scanner Pro, Printer Pro and others. We have to admit that Documents is maintained at a decent level, and the developers have managed to maintain a high standard. But first things first.
Let's start with the fact that Documents allows you to comfortably view both the local files on your phone, and data in the cloud storage Dropbox, Google Drive, SugarSync, Box, Sharepoint, Skydrive and others. You just connect your accounts from there, and all of your documents with all the services together in one place. Agree, it is very convenient. For example, I use Dropbox to store photos, Google Docs to create and maintain joint documents, and Skydrive I lie any presentation. Now you can not open the app every cloud service separately, because all the data are collected together.
It's great that you can share files between your iOS-devaysa on iCloud and transfer files between your PC or Mac and iPhone / iPad via Wi-Fi or iTunes. If you need to upload a file from the Internet, rather than networked storage, it features a built-in web browser with bookmarks and downloads. Again, comfortable and functional.
As for file support, then Documents with it all right. It supports all of the files of office programs, such as .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx, .txt, and the like. The application is built and quite nice pdf-viewer, which allows you to leave notes, create bookmarks to quickly jump to the desired page and search for text in the document. Not bad.
In addition, the program can work with .zip and .rar faylamii allows you to create the zip-files (it's just a killer-feature) of the relevant documents. Also, the application can easily play audio and video files to your own media player that also can not fail to please.
Documents has a fairly wide settings. They relate to virtually all aspects of the application: file manager, built-in browser, view text files and pdf and much more. If desired, you can set a password that will be required when logging into the application that will help protect your data. In general, the settings here, too, in order.
As you can see, the functionality of the Documents just a bunch. Seriously, it allows you to replace the lion's share of applications on your phone - a document viewer, file manager, pdf-viewer, media player and archiver. Moreover, it is absolutely free.
Readdle managed to create a completely full application that is functionally no worse than his older brother on iPad. While working with Documents on the tablet, of course, more convenient, simply by virtue of the device format. Interface perfectly adapted to the screen of the smartphone, to work with the application is very convenient, it works steadily and rapidly. Yes, Documents must be a part of your desktop to your iPhone. Excellent packed, functional and user-friendly application - a true role model for other developers. Install - you will not regret.
