Ratings and reviews

I was not able to copy files and folders from the internal memory of my phone to the attached external . memory device. Though it helped me to able see hidden files and folders on my phone.

Had to install this second app to use the 'save as' feature of the network browser app. As if that wasn't bad enough, it just didn't work at all. Clicked 'save as' and then nothing.

a competent file manager that does what most do, however I dislike being strongarmed into using it by ape aps's my colony game, I see no reason whatsoever that it couldn't perform the same functionality as my inbuilt file manager, i appreciate developers need to get paid and software needs advertising but tactics like those are no better than bundled crapware on pc, worse in fact, you at least aren't forced to use crapware
