Some time ago we reviewed an app that is already offering some revolutionary capabilities to interconnect your devices and access your files no matter where you are. In our Younity review, we presented to you the new actor on the Emby vs Plex battle for the title of "best home server application"; with a twist: Younity is not aimed to streaming media from a server only.

I must confess I actually got excited when I saw the Younity Android app was released. As an Android user myself, I wanted to try the freedom that Younity offers in handling your files across devices. Having several Android devices and a laptop computer, it could become useful for me personally in my everyday life, for work and leisure. I am always concerned about security, but with Younity I actually wouldn't worry because all files are accessed through a peer-to-peer personal connection across my own devices.
