I've been testing a lot of apps to manage my files and folders, I am really fond of this application. Even allows me to access my computer on the network, as well as establishing an FTP server. Adding the dark theme is very very clean. I can keep on talking about the benefits of this app really deserves a 100 stars.

The one thing I download this to do was to connect as an SMB client to my Windows machines, but when I tried to connect, it just said "network timed out". Also some fields in the dialogues are labelled in absolutely tiny dark green letters on a black background and are therefore completely unreadable without a magnifying glass. And since my only magnifying glass is an app on my phone, that is a complete dealbreaker.

Hi there, I really do enjoy this app, I even paid for pro, but there are some jarring things about it that can make it off-putting to use and even annoying I really appreciate the feature to be able to select 'only for this folder' so on the photos I can organize it differently than in the internal storage access. However, sometimes this doesn't work. Another thing is that grid view and and media view are essentially the same but grid view looks a bit more ugly and there isn't any thumbnails for the folders... I thought it would be good to have in internal storage folders so that they're grid view when I access them from another app making it easier to scroll, but this affects media view too! Why on Earth would it do that?? Media view is to see the thumbnails clearly and the pictures, while grid view is for quick clicking. If media view has to be adjustable, could you make it seperable from grid view? Another thing, I love the gif thumbnails, but sometimes they don't load and end up inconsistent. Some suggestions: - more customization options like making the app background whatever color and allowing top of the sidebar to have a photo and maybe a choice for a simpler cleaner interface with mostly white - locked folders option so you don't have to lock the entire app - possibly a cache and obsolete file analyzer? So it's possible to find apps taking unnecessary space immediately, their specifics, and delete them on the fly Thank you for the development of this great manager. :) Edit: also, how do you move files from a folder to another??? I can't find that option anywhere Edit 2: I've figured out the copy and paste option, but is there a way to simply transfer the files to another folder without having to paste them and delete the old copy?

This app is so wonderful. It's everything you need interms of security, speed, accuracy, perfection etc. For many years i have been looking for a file manager which i can use to either move or copy item's without any delay during the process and which also has protection like fingerprint and password and this app does everything. The interface is superb, with good design and well structured. Everything in the dashboard is wonderfully structured and you still have the chance to restructure.

Finally a file manager that can be used as a presenter. Looking for something like this for a long time. All other file managers view media by type, but when you are giving a presentation you have different types and this one views all in sequence. Excelente! If you add a timer to automatically go from a file to the next and view them, your app will be perfect. It saves a lot time in the preparation of presentation. Thanks a lot!!!

This app is great, but there are some issues that need fixing like: - The adds at the bottom cover the folder's content - When copying, moving, or doing anything with a file it gives a notification, I h is fine, but it stays there for too long and is very annoying cause once you click it it changes the screen you're looking at. Once these issues are fixed I'll gladly change my rating!

Hey! I purchased the lifetime pro version 3 years back, happy with my purchase 🤗 Please tell me how do I put videos/audios in Safe Box, as the "Next" button is greyed out 🫠 Second, how do I edit images with this? Image editor by Lufick was made for an older version of android 🙄

One thing that bothers me is that when I try to edit pictures in this file manager, it tells me to install another app. I wish the developers would actually implement any editing options for images within the file manager instead of installing another app.

I must say, the images above used to showcase this app don't do it justice at all. To compare this file manager with 99.9% of all other ones, even pricy ones, is like comparing features of a flip phone with latest smartphone - Not even CLOSE!: manage apps, auto backup any files, folders to any cloud storage, share files between all devices thru home wifi, copy paste anything to anywhere else, customizable dashboards, storage tools, network tools, tabs... not even Windows comes close! WOW!

It deserves 5 star but due to only one bug ... Actually this app behaves dramatically when you delete a lot of files and all these go into trash. After ypu try to empty trash , it takes a lot of times to show the files to be permanently deleted or stored. Many times it fails to show such deleted files. In my case whenever I delete call recordings and go to trash to permanently delete these, app fails to load trash. Please ..do what required.

I was searching for the alternative of original ES for a long time. Finally, found this. Really like the UI. It has almost everything I need. Cloud, FTP, SMB and file transfer with real progress bar with all details. However, it woud be the perfect if if below features included: 1. File sharing over Wi-Fi - even from third party apps from share option. 2. Save as option from the share option from third party apps just like what we have seen in the ES. 3. Sort and view options like windows

I needed a personal cloud. the hardware was easy, a simple, unobtrusive file management system that gave me access to my storage was far more difficult to find than I thought. I probably tried seven of them. this app is what you want if you need access to nas type storage. and... the app is pretty.

Nearly Perfect. Does everything I need in a file manager. Top navigation bar when I'm moving around. SMB (HUGE for me) as well as other lan options. Only small issue is I've noticed as of late is it adding extra file extensions on the back of my aac files why moving them around. Just why? Its a pain having to go through and remove that extra extension should a move happen.

One of the top 3 best file manager for android along with es file manager and file manager +, but smart file manager very well set up with a lot of options, ..**i see the app is better than ever, still missing a file downloader, a download manager like es file manager so i can download free movies off this one site, cause the phone download manager break the links sometimes. **i was also trying not to update this app cause the updated version have ads now, i have the old version of this app, but no choice i had to update.

Could b good app, but with some annoying bugs. For instance, after spending a bunch of time selecting files in a directory you hit the top while scrolling up, the screen refreshes and all your selected files are no longer selected. Same goes if you select the files and try to move them to a new location that has no permissions set yet, the app guides you through granting permissions, and once everything is finally ready, you realize again that selected files are no longer selected. That's bad.

Extremely custimizable, and flushed out file manager. It's of a much higher calibur than any other manager I've tested so far. This is the only file manager I use anymore. The only thing I would add is an option to show currently extracting, moving, or copying files in the notification bar or an option to keep the screen awake while they're extracting, moving, or copying. But everyones a critic, right? Really well made app. Thanks for all the hard work put into this!

Love the dashboard view, easy file- and cloud storage management. Two small complaints: 1. Can't find a way to backup/export file manager's settings. I've spent a lot of time arranging bookmarks, UI, ☁ services and dashboard to my liking - and I wouldn't want to do all of that again by hand if there's a need to change or factory reset my phone. 2. The splash screen (opens when the app boots up) is white even if Dark theme is activated in the settings. It's very annoying, especially at night.

I'm all for ad supported free apps, but the ads in the free version are ridiculous. Full screen popup ads with autoplay audio that take over your device. They are like the ads in free games. That being said, once you buy the app, the functionality is great if you need its capabilities. If you're looking for a generic free file manager, skip this one. If you need a powerful file manager and don't mind paying, this may be the one for you.

First of all, thanks for you work. Very special thank you for supporting exFAT and NTFS file system. I have very greatest hope that you will implement also writing functionality for those two file system. Sadly free app is almost unusable because of lots of ads and lack of significant features. And I have one utterly important remark and two kind request. Please make it possible to configure the username and password for the FTP server and ability to add FTP server shortcut to the home screen.

This is one of my favorite apps, especially file manager apps. Lately, however, I have noticed some issues. It refuses to connect to Onedrive first of all. I've tried everything and while most other cloud apps connect fine onedrive doesn't. Also, opening files from the app can be a pain. Opening videos often gives an error that it can't find the file (I'm getting it from this app!) and sometimes opening from a cloud location keeps prompting credentials its already got. Otherwise it's a fine app.
