Ratings and reviews

Good app with great features, easy file navigation, even plays videos. BUT, renaming a file sometimes makes the file disappear from the Google Photos app or from Google Files. This seems like a serious issue. Some sort of link / directory structure is being broken. Is anyone still maintaining this handy app?

!!! In contrast to all below in this post. In certain cases, instead of copying content, it creates empty files, and deletes the source if that was a move op _ _ Though Samsung's FM is the same _ _ The best file manager of 35 that i checked. BTW that its just the Android File Manager, it doesn't support any remoting, but has every feature that it should. Would be good to change the move and compress icons to more default/recognizable ones _ _ And would be awesome to have NTFS support for OTG X)

This is one of the best file managers that I've tried. It's functioning pretty well, and showing all the hidden files, sent WhatsApp videos etc. and is quite convenient to use and delete unnecessary files. What's more, in such a small size, it is additionally providing video player and photo viewer as well. Highly recommended!
