2019-04-20
Thanks for your feedback on the new features!
Because a number of editor apps you use don't support Edit In Place correctly, we have restored the "Share File" menu item to its previous functionality, copying files to other apps. Documents in network folders can now be edited in place with an appropriate third-party app using the new "Edit In Place" menu item or new the list view icons.
This update also fixes some bugs with the folder listing view on iOS 10. We support iOS versions from 8.3 and later. We'll try to support older iOS versions for as long as possible.

We have also added a new "Copy to Another App" menu option for files. This allows files to be passed to apps that claim to support the iOS open-in-place feature but don't implement it correctly. If the Share File option no longer works with a particular App, please try "Copy to Another App" instead.
