First look: Memeo Connect Reader for iPad


If you're a big fan of Google Docs and the iPad, then you're going to love the free Memeo Connect Reader for iPad.

While the app doesn't allow you to edit your documents, it works well as an online and offline reader for many file formats, including Microsoft Office, Apple iWorks, PDF files, images, and movies. Documents that are updated online by collaborators are instantly synced back to Memeo Connect Reader, so you'll always have access to the latest version.

As you can see in the video, the app has a nice, simple interface. Documents that have been created and saved in Google Docs or that have been created elsewhere and uploaded to Google Docs are automatically parsed into a group of folders. There's one for Documents, another for Presentations, one more for Spreadsheets, and so on. Tapping a folder displays an animated folder with a list of new or older documents, listed in reverse chronological order. To open an view a document, you simply tap on it.

Memeo Connect Reader for iPad looks like a big ol' bucket of win for anyone with an iPad who needs access to their Google Docs.

I seem to regularly run into interface glitches, like the disappearance of the "back to menu" button from the upper left. Looking at some of the other comments, I'm hoping stability will be addressed quickly in future releases. Otherwise, really quite promising.

This will be much more useful when you can actually use googledocs on the iPad itself to create and modify documents...

App looks great but crashes back to the iPad home screen 4 out of 5 times I click on downloading anything. 4/5 for app usefulness. 1/5 for stability.

...would be nice if it had support for multiple google accounts, though.

This is one of my favorite apps. This and iWork online are both great for meetings (the later for when you can be online and the former when you might be at a client's office and they don't know the WiFi password).

You can also choose your own wallpapers, which is nice.

I like the interface and organization, the Google Docs Sync, and offline storage. As I never make mistakes writing or editing documents, I'm just fine without being able to work on them...er...wait a second!
