Ratings and reviews

Quick and easy and does exactly what it says. I had a file widget app already but it took up 28 MB! There's no reason such a simple function should take up that much space. This app only shows 3MB as installed. I uninstalled the other app. Also, I prefer the sizing of the home icon on this app because it's the same size as my app icons. The other one put a big icon on my home page.

This app saves me a great deal of time. Rather than always searching for a file, I can simply use it to find a file I need (like a PDF document) and make a shortcut to the home screen. So instead of the frantically searching and continuous clicking, I can access the file I need with one simple action. It is an ideal time saver. I use the older version on my old devices and the new version [V2] on my newer ones. Top marks to the developers.

Very minimalistic. But that can be a good thing. I was hoping for more features and customizations, but this one is clean, ad-free, cost-free, and very small size, so no worries about storage space. Thank you very much kind person, for creating this app! <3
