Your files. Your server. Your ownCloud. Connect to your ownCloud Infinite Scale (oCIS) or ownCloud Classic server and access your private cloud from anywhere. Open source, self-hosted, no third-party cloud required. ownCloud gives you full control over your data. Whether you're a teacher accessing the school cloud, a sysadmin managing a federated deployment, or someone who simply refuses to hand their files to a big-tech provider — this app is built for you. FEATURES - Browse, Edit and Create files Work with your files directly on your device with Files integration, built-in markup tools*, and the document scanner*. Switch between list view and three grid views — all updating live as changes happen locally or remotely. - Built-in viewers View common file types right in the app. Swipe through images in carousel view. Navigate PDFs using their table of contents or full-text search. - Spaces (oCIS) On ownCloud Infinite Scale servers, organise work into Spaces with dedicated permissions, members, and quotas. Full Spaces support is built in. - Sharing and Collaboration Share files and folders with other users on the same server or externally via public links. Fine-grained permissions, password protection, and expiry dates give you control over every share. - Search (Local and Remote) Filter by date, size, type, or location. Save searches and create reusable templates. Local search works fully offline. On oCIS servers, server-side search can also find content inside files (depending on server configuration). - Offline Support Mark files and folders for offline availability. Work without a connection. Changes sync automatically when you're back online. Built from the ground up with offline-first in mind. - Multiple Accounts Connect to several ownCloud servers and accounts simultaneously. Switch between them seamlessly. - Deep OS Integration Native iPadOS multitasking, drag and drop, File Provider, and Shortcuts support. Built by developers who care about how apps should feel on Apple platforms. - Security The app tracks your server's TLS certificates and warns you about unexpected changes. Review certificate details (including a diff of what changed) and accept or reject — right from the app. * Some features may require an In-App Purchase or Subscription.

(Radio-)Pharmaceuticals are precious, and their manufacture is a combination of highly skilled staff and a machine park, which is complex and operating under challenging conditions. Every step is heavily regulated by governmental bodies and every operator mistake as well as every equipment malfunction has the potential to lead to a considerable paper trail to document deviations or to even ruin an entire batch of product. With the Augmenticon SHARE App you enable your smart phone or tablet to connect to the Augmenticon SHARE network combining a strong communication platform with augmented reality features and an easy and compliant documentation tool. Within seconds you can connect with internal or external experts to: - Let them see what you see. - Let them hear what you hear. - Obtain their expert advice by means of augmented reality features or instant sharing of supporting materials (3D models, PDF documents, videos, graphics, pictures). - Let them monitor real time how you reduce their advice to practice. - Let them document the case in a cGMP compliant manner. Whenever you need a second pair of eyes and ears use your smart phone or tablet to connect to Augmenticon SHARE and an expert is readily available whatever the case may be: - To double-check critical steps of the process before you move on. - To support you in troubleshooting. - To guide you through a process in case you are still a learner. And even if you don’t need the expert but just a document without leaving your workplace (cleanroom etc.) ... Augmenticon SHARE is your support platform to provide these files when- and wherever needed.
