It is an app for convenient viewing, uploading, and storing corporate files, be it images, videos, and documents. You can share the content with your team or people outside the company. Indeed, a smart file management solution; however, such apps require a two-fold amount of attention as file upload bugs are pretty common. In this particular case, an attempt to upload a video file causes the app to crash.
