Ifiles exists as a hub between cloud based services allowing you to copy files between – Dropbox, iCloud, Skydrive, Googledrive and many others. It has the capacity to work with more than one account on the same cloud-based service. I find it invaluable for getting content onto and off the devices when delivering training.
