It's a solid file manager on-device, but I can never get samba logins to work over LAN (yes, my login is 100% correct) despite it working on all other local computers, and I have to manually transfer over USB to my mobile device as a result. Also having ads isn't so bad as much as the type of ads which are straight up malware. Ethical choices matter here.

This was my favorite file manager for a long time, especially back when I rooted my phone and swapped ROMs all the time. I just downloaded it again for the first time in a few years and man is it bloated now. Ads, weird persistent notifications about your storage, and a weird home page with all sorts of random options and features instead of just... looking at your file directory? I get wanting to improve your app over time but I don't need any of this stuff from a file manager

Thank you for your feedback. Please take a look, there are many different features, such as unified management of your cloud storage, SMB, FTP, and other remote networks. Of course, if you need a traditional storage list, simply click on the storage on the top or swipe right. If you are willing to support us, could you give us five stars? Thanks.

Guess I should've stuck with the older ES File Explorer. I went to update it and it no longer existed so after a search it looked like it was renamed to EX. This one's filled with ads, and not just small banner ads at the bottom (which wouldn't bother me), but unskippable (you can after a while) garbage after a super slow startup. Going to find a different file explorer. :-/
