Migrate to Cloud storage at a pace that suits you.All browsing and file transfers are performed on the iPad/iPhone so you don’t need to sit at your computer to upload files to FileBrowser.View every document type that iOS supports.

PLEASE NOTE – we are only able to provide support in English.FileBrowser is an essential app but it's not magic and it doesn't bypass network security. It will not be able to access your files on your home computer from a remote location over the Internet without your computer being accessible FROM the Internet and SMB file sharing being enabled. ■ Connects to Windows 2000 and above, MacOS from 10.5, most variants of Linux, and most (but not all) NAS drives. Try our free NetPortalLite app to test connectivity.■ Does NOT support AFP or FTP. ■ To stream AVIs with DIVX or XVID codecs requires a third party app that is able to play these formats.
