Ratings and reviews

Most things work...But working on a pixel 9, we can't auto upload in the background. So whenever the app goes to the background and stays there for a minute or two, the upload will fail, waiting for you to pull the app back into the foreground. Please fix it and I'll update my rank. Edit: I've allowed app to run in the background (ie disable battery optimization), but every time I try to toggle on the "Allow QFile Pro to run in three background" in-app setting, it does not allow me to proceed.

Looks like a great and fast app, BUT: The UI is a bit noisy and has no coherence with Android UI There are 3 file syncing options, none of which is suitable for multiple sync profiles. You have only one target location. And you can't choose the root folder of the internal phone's disk. There are no inclusion/exclusion lists. This application needs quite some polish and redesign 🤷

Pretty worthless... Used to work but anymore none of the photos I tagged will sync. Yes, I have read all of the online docs. Timeouts, unable to connect to server. This is a core function of this app that has stopped working. It should just work. People should not have to read online docs to figure it out. This is a development failure. Videos also stop playing after about 10 minutes so streaming is out of the question. App is worthless.
