The effect is as shown, but there is no progress indicator, making the waiting experience less than ideal.

Files can be downloaded and deleted, but clicking "open in new tab" results in a blank page, which is likely a bug.

You can distinguish between different files using tags.

Set up automatic tagging rules, for example:

  • Files whose names contain "Invoice" are automatically tagged with "Finance" and "Reimbursement".
  • Files whose names contain "Warranty" are automatically tagged with "Warranty" and "Appliance".
  • PDF files are automatically tagged with "Important Documents".

Uploaded files are located in the application data directory; remember to perform regular backups.
