About this app

Solid Explorer is a powerful file manager that gives you full control over files on your device, in the cloud, and across your network.

🗄️ Dual-pane layout — drag and drop files between two panels
🔐 AES-256 encryption — lock files with password or fingerprint
🖥️ Cloud & network access — Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, SMB, SFTP, FTP & more
🌐 Web file sharing — send files to any device with a web browser


Manage files your way
Navigate two folders side by side and drag files between panels — the fastest way to organize storage. Use indexed search to find anything instantly, batch rename files with patterns, and browse collections that automatically sort your Downloads, Photos, Videos, Music, Documents, and Apps.


Access all your storage in one app
Connect to Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, Mega*, MediaFire, Yandex, Owncloud and SugarSync. Access NAS drives and servers over SMB/CIFS (Samba), SFTP, FTP, and WebDAV. Transfer files between any two locations — cloud to cloud, server to phone, or SD card to NAS — just drag between panels.


Share files with any device
Start the built-in web server and share files with any phone, tablet, or computer on your network — the other device just needs a web browser. No app install needed on the receiving end.


Keep your files private
Encrypt sensitive files with AES-256 and lock them behind a password or fingerprint. Encrypted files stay protected even if you uninstall the app — no account required.


Clean up and free storage
Analyze what takes up space, find duplicate and large files, and clean up junk — similar to dedicated cleaner apps, but built right into your file manager. Works across internal storage, SD cards, USB OTG drives, and even cloud storage like Google Drive, OneDrive, and Dropbox.

Ratings and reviews

I've been using SolidExplorer for years, and LOVE it! It took some getting used to the left and right panels, but once I figured that out, no going back to ordinary file explorers. Easy connection to local network shares and cloud services, all in one app. I occasionally encounter issues or crashes navigating network shares, but overall, I love it.

There is a problem with Text Finder; when searching for a phrase or word, it doesn't select the desired text, and the up and down buttons also don't work. Please note that the video player lacks subtitle control, such as font size and subtitle height control in vertical mode, as they appear at the bottom and cannot be adjusted in height, and also control over changing the subtitle color.

I've using this app for a few years and I love it ... but I love it a little less now that version 3.5.16 has landed on my Pixel. When I use SE Text Editor to edit a file and save my changes, an extra carriage return is added to the end of each paragraph. Are you guys aware of this and do you have a fix in the pipeline?
