Nomadesk iPhone App Is “In Review”
July 12, 2010 by Filip Tack · Leave a Comment
Excitement! We finally pushed our iPhone app through the Nomadesk QA department – tough guys. Now, we just received word that our app is in review by Apple. All ten fingers crossed (ouch)!
Are we late to the party? I don’t believe so. We simply took the time to build an app that really fits the existing Nomadesk experience. As such Nomadesk for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad will allow you to:
- Access all your documents, pictures, music, etc.
- Share Files and Folders with a download link
- Upload pictures (existing ones or direct from your iPhone camera) to share and sync
- View documents, pictures, slideshows
- Share your Nomadesk Fileserver and manage guest permissions
- Sign up to Nomadesk and create Fileservers
- Track your computer(s) on Google Maps and remotely shred your Nomadesk files with Nomadesk Theftguard
So, soon you will be able to download the Nomadesk app from the iTunes AppStore. We can hardly wait to get your feedback, after all this is but “version one”.

Nomadesk released an updated version of the mobile access site last week. With the release of the new mynomadesk.mobi site, your fileservers and important documents are even easier to access. The new mobile site is updated for all smartphones and optimized for the iPhone. In our first installment of Tips & Tricks we’ll show you how Nomadesk takes advantage of iPhone functions by allowing you to create a button on your home screen with a few simple steps to make it even easier to access.
Open the Safari browser on your iPhone and navigate to mynomadesk.mobi. When the login screen is loaded, tap on the “+” at the bottom of the screen.
An option screen will pop up from the bottom. Tap on the middle button, “Add to Home Screen”.
A dialog screen will appear with the option to label the home screen button. Click the “add” button in the top right of the screen when you’re done with the label. Hint: The home screen will only show the first 12 characters.
The icon is now on your home screen and selecting it will take you directly to the login screen of mynomadesk.mobi where your synced files will be ready for you to access. The Nomadesk icon can be moved and arranged like an app icon.
