X-plore allows you to see inside of your Android device. And also outside.

This is a dual-pane explorer, there are two folders shown at same time, and common operation such as copying files are done from one pane to another.
And X-plore shows folder hierarchy in a tree view for clear orientation and fast switching to other location.

You may explore internals of the device, and if you're power user and have your device rooted, you can make changes to system data - backup files, remove unwanted applications, etc.

If you're standard user, you may choose to hide internal memory from view and be sure not to mess with system.
You can comfortably see contents of mass memories on your device, or possibly attached USB memory stick.

Simple app manager allows to see, run, copy, share, uninstall and further explore installed applications.

WiFi file sharing
Access files on your Android device from other Android devices over WiFi.

Access from a PC web browser
Manage files on your Android device from your PC.

Access to FTP and FTPS (secure FTP) servers is supported.
Multiple servers may be configured.

X-plore can display shared folders on other computers in LAN.

X-plore can access various web storage "Cloud" servers, and access their files.
You need to have account in supported web service, then you can access your files stored online through X-plore.

Supported is also SSH File Transfer (SFTP) and Terminal shell emulator.

X-plore contains music player that can play music tracks from any available location.

With Vault function, you can encrypt sensitive files, even by your fingerprint.

Main operations are related to managing files and folders - viewing, copying, moving, deleting, compressing to Zip, extracting, renaming, sharing, and more.

SQLite database viewer
X-plore can show SQLite database files (those with .db extension) as expandable list of tables, each table containing list of rows and columns with database entries.

Main interaction is done by touch screen, clicking on folders or files to open files, or long-click to open context menu which contains options which can be done on particular clicked item, or multiple selected items.
Multi-selection allows to do operation on more files at once.

Opening file may mean to use one of built-in viewer for most popular file types: images, audio, video and text.
Or you may configure X-plore to use system application for opening files, in which case system-predefined application that can open particular file is launched.

Archives (currently supported are Zip, Rar and 7zip) are displayed as other folders.

I have been using this app for many years now. It is beyond a shadow of a doubt the very best file explorer for super users! Absolutely packed full of every feature you could imagine and everything works in the same way. If you are looking for a real work horse of a file explorer with Cloud / ftp / lan and just about every other feature you will ever need this is the very best you can dream of let alone download!

I used to love this app. Adverts were just along the bottom of the screen. Everything worked as it should. But in the last few months. Adverts pop up on a window occasionally. Access to my WD Mybooklive server crashes the server which then takes time to reboot itself. So. As a file explorer, it's good. As a media player for a DLNA/SMB file storage it's poor. The now annoying advertising will push me towards a different application. Sorry.

Outstanding advanced file explorer. If you are looking for something to let you organise and explore files on your device, and copy files between pretty much anything including cloud storage, ftp, ssh and DLNA servers, plus acts as HTTP based file server allowing you to access your device files from any other device on your network, this is the app you've been looking for. Packed full of features, but pretty easy to use. Cannot recommend highly enough, I use it nearly every day.
