▸ BROWSE WITH EASE
Navigate your files effortlessly with a modern, clutter-free interface. Use breadcrumb navigation to jump directly to any parent folder with a single tap. Quick access sections put your most-used locations — Downloads, Images, Videos, Audio, Documents, Camera, Screenshots, and Podcasts — right at your fingertips, and you can customize which locations appear. Browse internal and external storage freely, with recently opened files always just a tap away.

▸ MANAGE YOUR FILES
Everything you need, nothing you don't:
✓ Copy, move, and rename files and folders

✓ Share files or open with any app of your choice
✓ Select multiple items for batch operations

▸ COMPRESS & EXTRACT
Built-in ZIP support lets you compress files to save space and share them easily. Extract ZIP archives with full support for password-protected files. No additional apps needed.

▸ FIND ANYTHING FAST
Real-time search delivers results as you type, helping you locate any file in seconds. Sort your files by name, size, or date — ascending or descending — to find exactly what you're looking for.

▸ DETAILED FILE INFORMATION
Tap any file to see rich metadata tailored to its type. View name, location, size, and dates for any file. Photos include comprehensive EXIF data — camera make and model, lens, ISO, aperture, focal length, exposure, GPS coordinates with map integration, and more. Audio files show artist, album, and track info. Videos display resolution and duration. PDFs show page count. APKs reveal version and package details.

▸ RICH PREVIEWS
See more than just filenames. This file manager generates thumbnails for images, video frames, app icons for APKs, album art for audio files, book covers for EPUBs, and rendered SVG graphics.

Clean interface unlike basically everything on the market right now. Add the ability to delete files/directories, move files/directories, and compress/decompress files and you've got 5 stars. Edit: When I first loaded the app, the long-press function wasn't working! Must have been a run-time error of some sort. You're right. 5 stars then, but definitely would hope to see a compression feature.

Hi, if you make a long press on a file/folder you will see a contextual menu (bubble buttons on the right) that will allow you to cut, copy, rename, delete, share, etc. Unfortunately, the app is no able to compress/decompress for the moment.

I've just released a major update: a new design, new features, and bug fixes, including renaming files. Ghost files after deletion may have been a display glitch — that should be fixed too, but if you still see it, let me know.

A complete folder explorer app. Seing storage space information for each folder is very convenient.
