Gets the job done. I can find the file I want because it shows the actual file system, not a bunch of libraries (groups such as "photos" or "docs") that tend to hide your precious creation if it just so happens to be a file in thw wrong place. With Smart File Manager, you can find the file anywhere in your phone and move the files to where ever you want. No bull.

I have loved this app since the day I discovered it a few years ago but I just download it again and it has a pop up in the beginning saying that if I refuse permissions I can't use the service and to turn on permissions like it's turned off and sure enough I go to settings and permissions aren't even available just completely grayed out. I don't understand. Still love the app.

Well this is my one week re-review. This is the finest file manager app I have found in the playstore. Great functionality. Detects EVERYTHING in the phone. SIX STARS !!! I wanted to mention I have tried close to 20 file mgr apps from the playstore and Smart File Manager not only does what it says, it says what it does, and does it flawlessly. My choice, finally.
