Ratings and reviews

For such an esteemed file editor, I'm surprised that its built-in text editor saves "ñ" as "ñ" in .TXT files. It also does not allow any kind of custom highlighting, such as the todo.txt format which I would heavily use. Lastly, the text editor sometimes clips part of the rightmost character off-screen in some lines on at least my S21 FE. I'll update this review if this gets fixed.

This is by far the most powerful file manager ever made for Android. Honestly, probably the best out of ANY file manager I have ever used. Period. First of all, the theme options ans setting's are so plentiful it can get overwhelming but if you're a sucker for customizations then you'll feel right at home. Every single color of everything you see on your screen down to the scroll bar color. All of your storage from almost any provider and I've never had one single issue with opening a file!

Honestly not sure why I did not buy this sooner. I've used a lot of file explorers before, but this one is the best. Only thing I can't figure out is how to make it ignore images in some of my folders without adding a . or a .nomedia file in the folder (None of which I want to do as it prevents other apps from using said folders. Overall extremely solid file explorer that has eliminated my need for any other one. Also the built in archiver, image viewer, and media player is pretty poggers.
