FilePass for iOS Overview
FilePass enables users to share documents securely between MobileIron apps (Docs@Work and Email+) and Microsoft Intune MAM-protected Office 365 apps, while retaining identity coherency. The FilePass app honors Intune App Protection policies just like any app with Intune MAM.
When FilePass is enabled in Docs@Work and Email+ configuration, you can share docs between MobileIron apps and Intune-enabled Microsoft Office 365 managed apps such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft OneNote, and so on.
FilePass is an AppConnect and Intune-enabled app, which means that it is containerized to protect the content on iOS devices. As an AppConnect app, all FilePass content is secure.
FilePass translates documents from MobileIron AppConnect container to Microsoft Intune container and vice-versa.
Where to find FilePass
You can download FilePass for iOS from the Apple App Store. You can also distribute FilePass for iOS as a recommended app through Apps@Work.
