You are all set. Just tap the Amazon Machine on the homescreen to access all your files.

If the account that you are authenticating with does not have the list-buckets privilege, you can add the desired bucket name after the Key setting, separated by a forward slash. This restricts browsing to the named bucket. You can also add more path components to control the root folder.
