MobileFiles Offers MobileMe's iDisk Access from iPhone

Monday November 3, 2008 10:02 am PST by Arnold Kim
A new free application called MobileFiles offers MobileMe customers access to their iDisk files from their iPhone. Features include:

- Access files stored remotely on your iDisk folder (separate MobileMe account required)
- View files on your iPhone or iPod Touch in landscape or portrait with pan and zoom
- Download from multiple iDisk accounts or friends shared public iDisk folders
- Store downloaded files on your iPhone or iPod Touch for faster offline viewing or listening
- Manage your files with our built-in Filemanager for convenient file organization

MobileFiles supports the same standard filetypes supported in Apple's Mail client. This includes Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint as well as PDF and image files.

App Store Link: MobileFiles, Free

So Im going to assume that this means apple isn't planning on adding this functionality any time soon?

Not yet - I'm hoping they add this feature in an update.

Handy indeed, but it can't verify my account? Similar issues anyone?

Still no editing of Word docs or anything else? The iPhone really needs that!

Don't put @me.com. Saying that, took me a few minutes of trying. Brilliant now I've got it to work.

I got in once and quit. Now authentication is failing when I try to log in again.

AT LAST! I was thinking about ditching my Mobile Me account if an App didn't come out that would let me access my files on my iPhone.

Works a treat too.

Look forward to be able to edit my files. (would be good to be able to send them back to the iDISK once edited too)

Should have saved my money... and not have gotten the "AirSharing" app... but I like this one too, and the "AirSharing" app is really cool, but $$

Went through their survey after using it for a while - they asked several questions about being able to email and/or edit files. Also, their site states: "Coming Soon: Quickoffice will offer applications that will allow you to edit Microsoft Office files directly from your iPhone." So hopefully it will be in a future update?

Pretty impressed so far...
