At the 1’st of October 2009 FileScout has been chosen as one of the sixteen BlackBerry Developer Challenge Finalists 2009. A panel of judges chosen by BlackBerry Partners Fund have select sixteen finalists (“Finalists”) from Qualified Applications received in the Contest duration, based on the following criteria:
- Compelling product or service
- Clearly defined value proposition
- Viable business model
- Technical execution
FileScout Core Features:
- FileScout is a file system browser for your BlackBerry® (including hidden files)
- Create directories, copy, move, rename, or delete files
- Zip and Unzip files or complete directory structures with your BlackBerry® (no support for password protected zips)
- Copy and delete complete directory structures
- Open all media files (supported by your BlackBerry®)
- Register additional file types with other (3rd party) applications (if supported)
- Open files (like ini, xml, etc.) as plain text so you can edit, mark, copy, and paste text fragments of files that normally can’t be opened with your BlackBerry®. This can become very valuable when you receive email attachments that are not normally supported by your BlackBerry®
- Delete pre-installed wallpapers, videos, and ringtones in order to free memory on your device***
Please note: once these features are deleted, the only way to get them back is to hard reset your device! - Display thumbnails for supported image files (if enabled in the options)
- Search for files and directories on your BlackBerry® device
- Send any file as an email attachment to your BlackBerry® contacts
- Send any file via Bluetooth to another device that support OBEX
- Define a favorite directory list (as shortcuts)
- Show details for files & directories [modification date, is hidden, etc...]
- Resize (& rotate) images in order to save time and money when sending photos to your friends via your BlackBerry®
- Create playlists (across multiple folders)
- More to come? – is there really something you miss for a file manager application? If so, let me know!

Please Note:Some files on BlackBerry® devices have some type of DRM (Digital Rights Management). As a result, these files cannot be copied or moved. FileScout will give you a warning once you try to copy a file that has ‘encrypted content’. FileScout will mark these files with a “caution” symbol. Additionally, in some cases, it will not be possible to delete this content. |
