If you’re inclined to use your iPhone or iPod Touch for hauling around non-natively supported files like Word documents and Powerpoint presentations, there are apps that will allow you to copy over your files… but those only work once you are out of your house. The awkwardly named Here, File File! aims to change that, offering easy access to the contents of any of your Macs, from anywhere.
Although Here, File File! hasn’t hit the App Store quite yet, the teaser video compelling demonstrates how the app works. After installing the contents of a small DMG on your Macs, Here, File File! allows you to browse, search, slurp and stream any file on your machine or its connected folders to your iPhone or iPod Touch, keeping things secure through user authentication and SSL encryption.
The stand-out functionalities of Here, File File! seem to be its effortless Spotlight integration, the ability to send emails with files attached from your host machine, and functionality for streaming movies or music from your Mac to your iPhone from anywhere, and over any connection (although, presumably, the streaming media feature only works with natively supported formats like MP4 and MP3.)
The developers claim that Here, File File! should be available on the App Store in January, although the price has yet to be announced. In the meantime, you can sign up to be notified when the app is released.
