Those documents can also be downloaded, copied and sent to other users &#151 and all this happens from within the app.

The app, named PocketCloud Explore, has been developed by Wyse Technology which is well known for its thin client computers.

The new Android app allows the users to type their query on the phone, which allows full text search of the desktop of the users.

To use the app, users will have to install one more app, called PocketCloud Comparison on their desktops, which then facilitates the search. Whenever the app sees a result, the file is displayed to the users with a drop down menu where the download, copy, move and transfer options are also available.
