Update 5/16/13: This post has been updated to include the latest update to Cubby for Android

If you’re one of the millions of business travelers jet-setting 50,000 miles up in the air, you know the pain that a few hours without an Internet connection can have. In the sky or not, you want access to your team’s files. In the latest Cubby for iOS and Cubby for Android updates, we’re helping you accomplish just that– being productive in more places–  with the introduction of offline file viewing.

Offline file viewing:

Notice in the screenshot below that the user, despite being in “Airplane Mode” (an iOS setting which cuts off WiFi and 3G/4G connection), is still able to view and access his Excel Spreadsheet for an upcoming work event.

This is made possible by a solution now in Cubby called caching. Every time you access a file online, Cubby saves that version of the file so that you can view it offline. Cubby caches files automatically in the background as you access them, so there’s nothing more you have to do. The files you need, when you need them– that’s what inspired this feature.

Browsing and searching in offline mode:

We also gave Cubby the ability to remember all of your file names and the names of cubbies and folders. That means you can now browse cubbies and folders or search for those “need-it-now” docs when your device is without a connection. 

Save for offline mode:

Don’t forget, these great features are in addition to the “Save for offline mode” feature that Cubby was born with. As a reminder: simply select any file, go to its info page, and choose to save it for offline. The document will always be available to you and will always point to the latest version from your last WiFi connection.

–Additional features–

Enhanced image viewing for iOS:

We know some of you wanted an easier way to view multiple images in the same Cubby or folder. The latest Cubby for iOS update also you to simply SWIPE to view the next photo in your list. It’s that easy.

(We’ll be working on this for Android, too. Stay tuned).

Android tablet support (coming soon):

A new update to Cubby for Android is coming soon for the large-screen experience on your favorite Android tablet. With tablet support, Cubby will soon provide “two-pane mode”, allowing you to browse your cubbies (on the left) and view its contents (on the right) from one screen. Stay tuned over the next few days for this update to appear in Google Play.

Now, it’s your turn. Help us create the next, best set of Cubby features: tell us how you’re using Cubby and with whom. Simply comment on this post and we’ll be sure to take note!
