For files that are not public, you can copy a unique URL that is valid for 24 hours. Security features: When you save a connection, S3 Manager stores the connection credentials in the device's Keychain, a secure storage with built-in encryption that is managed by the device's operating system (iOS). Your credentials never leave your device, and no other app on your device has access to them. To further improve security, you can enable authentication to protect your saved connections from unauthorized access. When authentication is enabled, you are prompted to complete Touch ID (or Face ID, if available) when you open the app. Credits: Folder icon made by Roundicons Freebies from www.flaticon.com

S3 Manager turns S3-compatible storage into a fast, AI-powered visual browser for photos, videos, and files. Connect your storage to get automatic thumbnails, AI-powered keywords, timeline and map views, and an iOS-native experience that feels much closer to the Photos app than a traditional file list. FEATURES Library Browse your S3 files with a Finder-style folder tree and flexible Grid and List views, with controls for thumbnail size and labels so you can organize your media the way you prefer. Timeline Automatically browse photos and videos organized by Years, Months, and Days using capture date metadata. Quickly jump through time with grouped navigation and detailed media grids. Maps Explore GPS-tagged photos and videos on interactive Map and Satellite views, including a map-grid mode that lets you browse media by location. Keywords Search your media using AI-generated keywords with helpful suggestions, recent searches, and fast browsing across large result sets. Smart Thumbnails S3 Manager generates image thumbnails and video previews using partial downloads whenever possible, allowing you to browse massive libraries without downloading full files. Slideshows View photos and videos full screen with quick access to download, info, sharing, delete actions, and zoom controls. Import and Export Import media from files, folders, or the iOS Photos library, export folders back to Photos, and manage downloads, sharing, and deletion with clear confirmation steps.
