Twin Commander for iOS

Finally, the classic two-pane file navigator for iPhone & iPad — the workflow generations of great programmers grew up with, now rebuilt for modern iOS.

Coming soon Beta for iPhone & iPad — free at launch.

What it is

Twin Commander is a modern file manager inspired by the legendary two-pane tools of the personal computing era. Pick a folder on the left, pick a folder on the right — then copy, move, rename, delete, view or edit with speed.

If you ever lived inside a commander interface, you already know: it’s the fastest way to manage files — hands down.

  • Two panes, one purpose: navigate and transfer with maximum speed.
  • Keyboard-friendly (tab switch, function keys, power shortcuts).
  • Works with the Files ecosystem (iCloud Drive, On My iPad, and connected providers).
  • Optional built-in text viewer (and later: HEX view for binary inspection).

Thoughts from the Leaders

“The two-pane commander workflow is where real productivity happens — once you learn it, you never go back.”

— Bill Gates, Co-founder of Microsoft

“When you’re building great software, you don’t waste time hunting files. A commander keeps you moving.”

— Steve Jobs, Co-founder of Apple
