Description of App
This package adds native Windows networking support for your iPhone, iPod or iPad.
Your device will appear in Windows' network locations, and you will be able to browse & transfer files from/to it seamlessly, as you would do with another Windows computer.
The configuration is done in Settings.
NOTE: when the device goes into sleep mode, Wifi is disabled. PC Networking uses Wifi, so it needs your device to be awake in order to be accessible.
