Ratings and reviews

Straight-forward interface with no unnecessary bells & whistles. I love when an app does exactly what it claims to do & does so well—especially for a free app, Empty Folder Cleaner is unbelievably easy to use & highly effective 👌 Just click scan, then click delete. That's it! 5 seconds later you'll be notified of the total number of empty folders the app located & removed from your device. Mine is usually around 200. Just an awesome little app I appreciate having on my phone, thanks devs! 😊

Though it's designed not to touch folders with hidden files, could you please add an option to display folders with ONLY a '.nomedia' when scanning? I need to learn them and then I will handle them by myself. ***below is the previous review*** This app removes most empty folders and saves me a lot of time navigating through directories. It's especially useful when I connect my phone to computer to transfer files since I don't need to dig the things I want out from those annoying folders now.

Good app! Does exactly what it says. Cleans empty folders on your device, however, this app no longer cleans empty folders for the SD card (Android 12). I hope that the developer reads these app ratings, it would be a shame if this app did not get updated and fixed because, in my opinion, it is one of the best apps in the Play Store. I will increase my rating again, once the SD card cleaning issue is fixed. I am not sure if the developer updates this app anymore. It was a great app!
