Banya app for iPhone and iPad

Banya app visualizes file management in a new way. It creates a new type of directory called Banya Folder, which gives a unique file handling experience with three distinguishing visual components.

One is named Input, which represents a file or a group of files that have been recently moved into the folder. It can be easily grouped or ungrouped by drag and drop, and be converted into a folder simply by a Force Click. Input enables you to instantly discern the files which still have not been fully categorized in the folder.
Another component is called Association, which associates files like the tag in Finder. But unlike the tag, Association can be created for each Banya Folder, and include all the contents of the folder. It can even contain the items in subfolders with the help of Edges, the last component depicting parent-child relationships. The Edge, in turn, enables Associations to be hierarchically organized: the Association in the parent folder can contain the Associations in the child folders.

Improve your file organization with Banya.
