MAC, IPHONE AND IPADPrivate preview

Your SharePoint libraries in the Finder sidebar.

KONNEKT for Mac, iPhone and iPad puts every SharePoint library a person can reach into the Finder sidebar and the Files app. Files download when someone opens them, Office documents open for co-authoring, and the Windows paths colleagues paste into chats open here too.

KONNEKT for Apple devices is in private preview with selected customers. Ask us for access; the Windows product is unaffected.

Select folders to browse, double-click an Office file, or right-click for the KONNEKT actions.

Example data. Names, files and figures are fictional.

Paths from Windows colleagues open on the Mac.

Mixed teams paste file paths into Teams chats and emails all day. KONNEKT translates a Windows path like \\OneDrive-contoso\Finance\… into its own address and opens the same file in Finder, or the folder in the Files app.

KONNEKT address
konnekt://contoso/Finance/Controlling/Budget%202027.xlsx
On a Mac
Finder opens with “Budget 2027.xlsx” selected.
On iPhone and iPad
Files opens the folder “Controlling”.

Example data. Names, files and figures are fictional.

  1. Select the path in Mail, Teams, Notes or any other app.
  2. Choose Share, then Konnekt.
  3. Open. Finder shows the file, the Files app shows its folder.

The menu bar item “Open UNC Path…” and the iPhone app do the same for a path you type.

Office documents open from SharePoint for co-authoring.

The PKG installer makes KONNEKT the handler for Word, Excel and PowerPoint files in its locations. A double-click hands the SharePoint address to the Office app, so documents open for co-authoring with AutoSave, just like on Windows.

  • Downloads happen when a file is opened; large files arrive in parts on macOS
  • Folders open in Finder refresh every 30 seconds
  • File types you flag as offline stay downloaded on the Mac
  • View Online, Edit Online and Copy Link To Clipboard sit in the context menu

SharePoint in the Files app on iPhone and iPad.

On iOS and iPadOS, KONNEKT shows up as a location in Files, and the documents you open there come straight from SharePoint. The KONNEKT app itself only holds accounts and settings.

  • Several Microsoft 365 accounts, from your own tenant and from partner tenants
  • ★ Favorites keeps the libraries people use most at the top
  • Copy Link To Clipboard for sharing into Teams or Mail
  • Managed App Configuration for Intune, Jamf and other MDMs

Example data. Names, files and figures are fictional.

Configured by your MDM.

On macOS, KONNEKT reads settings that a configuration profile enforces for its preference domain. On iPhone and iPad, it reads Managed App Configuration. Settings such as co-authoring, log level and license lock in the app when a policy sets them.

The keys match the Windows policies, so one set of decisions covers both platforms. Accounts are always added by the user; mappings and settings can be pushed.
