New Update, 10.07.2o21. For users say it does not access SD.. but it does. users just have to find out how the app works. However its STILL the dumbest file mngr out NO file menu features for files have seen only bookmarking also NEEDS to MOVE and RENAME & SORT files not just bookmark another problem app get stuck using back button APP NEED FIXING QUICKLY So many any other problems will be shown again. t.y.
Surprisingly capable for it's size - very fast, too. Needs history or other mechanism to quickly switch between two or more folders for managing files. Easy multi-select by clicking icon would be nice as well.
good but it won't acres and card even this it does sometimes and can't grant it the permission to use as card root file just gets stuck in a loop of granting access and not working
outdated app. it cant open android 11 data folder and files due new version of Android security policy. ive alerted many file manager that android 11 has new security policy to open files especially android data files.
Very nice features,good ui, but available only in english,also has not been updated for year and half.
After trying so many alternatives this one simply nails it with pure simplicity yet it is powerful enough to do what you need and want.
Need a way to disable animations, they are very unnatural.
Cannot gain access to SD card, just keeps reprompting
Nice app, but it's icon is in Minecraft resolution. no offense =)
Small fast and doesn't require "permissions" to your soul.
unable to give access to sd card
It isn't worth It, there is better file reading apps
I can't explain this app is to amazing
Just downloaded hope works out for me fibally
very pleased!! thank you
Easy to use.
Y'all know how I been tho a mother and of from Brooke if y'all nust help she was coming because I carried Brooke it cars with a NASA with and not Mason I. Thank y'all so got boy home s with daddy.
not that good
First impressions» Simple, intuitive, minimal permissions (most importantly no Internet), open source, small footprint, has most file and folder management capabilities including creating rudimentary shortcuts to files & folders (can't change icon or edit text). Has a dark theme. The only niggle is the wasted space, personally I would prefer more compact listing. Doesn't open pdf files in 'APV PDF Viewer' (might be an issue with the viewer, but other file manager OK with it).
Please add cloud connectivity for Google drive and OneDrive and swipe navigation to go back and forth.
Nice. I will be sideloading this on my android tv but I'm currently unable to select the pen icon with a controller.
Really nice. Open Source FTW! Still has some sample bugs but I'm sure the developers will fix them soon.
For a pure, simple file manager, it does its job very well. Open source, light on resources, low space requirements: it is all I need. Thank you for your hard work!
I like that it is fast and light. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't handle APK files. When I try to open APK files it says 'No Matching Application Installed.' I don't know if it is a bug or not but I hope you could sort that out in the next updates.
OK local file manager. Good potential but lacks important features. Extra points for being open source and CLEAN - no ads, no extraneous perms, no free bait and switch. Thanks.
file names are cropped..Header space is wasted. Pl make necessary changes & it will be 5*.
How can I access to root directory on a rooted device? (added) thank you for replying:) I really love this app!
very convenient, but needs improvement: (01) search, selection, and processing by criteria. when you search files by a criterion like file name pattern it does show correct results, but nothing can be done to them except opening one. it would be nice if the selected subset could be moved, or renamed, etc. all together. (02) new folder creation while moving a file would be useful. at present the new folder has to be created seperately, requiring two operations.
