Soonr has announced the launch of an iPhone application that uses cloud computing to keep users in touch with their documents. A free version is available from the Apple App Store with expanded versions offered through mobile operators and SaaS providers.

Soonr makes the documents on a Mac or PC completely mobile. When the computer is online, Soonr automatically and instantly backs up the user's files in a "personal cloud."  iPhone users get a view of all their documents - whether they are Word, Excel, PowerPoint or virtually any other file type.

Soonr automatically maintains the latest versions of all users' key documents in the cloud. Soonr`s rendering software works across a wide range of document formats, so mobile workers don`t have to download specific programs to view their documents. Document pages can be previewed as thumbnails, and since the document resides in the cloud and not on the iPhone, accessing and viewing is fast.

All of Soonr's capabilities are available even when host computers are sleeping or powered off. Since Soonr continuously and securely backs up documents to the cloud, they can be restored in case of computer failure or loss.

Sharing documents via Soonr can be done in several ways. Users can send a document from their iPhone to anyone by simply entering the person`s mobile phone number or email address. Fellow Soonr users can create workgroups and share, view and comment on documents without using email and can share printers. When sharing files, users have the option of notifying a recipient of a share via SMS or email.
