Managing files on your iPhone and iPad can be quite complicated. This happens especially when you are sourcing different types of files into the device and are in habit of storing large number of documents, music and videos on your device. The inbuilt file management software works well in normal conditions where you need to store and access files on your device.
Problems crop up when files need to be transferred from a computer to your iOS powered device or between two iOS powered devices. In such a scenario you will need to complement the inbuilt file management mechanism with something special.
