Comments on Solid Explorer Classic for Android

★★★★★ Good app but not that intuitive to navigate around the various folders
★★★★★ Edit: Figured out how to access SD card, now 5 stars again 👍 Used to love this app but unable to access SD card on my new Galaxy S9.
★★★★★ WoW still the best file manager/Explorer out here and there...even better than Solid Explorer 2!!! Simple and easy to use...need more updates since we still love it!
★★★★★ This was a terrific app in its day. There's an updated version simply called "Solid Explorer". It surpasses the Classic app in every way, has a relevant feel & is better suited for more current versions of Android. Please consider using the newer up to date Solid Explorer & you'll be much happier.
★★☆☆☆ I can't access to the sd memory, which we could do before. Please, tell me if there's a way to go to sd memory.
★★☆☆☆ cut a folder from internal storage and could NOT figure out any way yo paste it to SD card .... getting good old ES explorer
★★☆☆☆ Edit: Malwarebytes is catching an adware and won't let me install. There isn't a file explorer out there as convenient to use as this one. The layout is just so much more natural. It feels as if you're browsing your files on a computer. I've been using this since the first day the beta was on the market. I bought it the minute it was for sale. Can't say enough good things about this.
★★☆☆☆ Could you add Zoho Work Drive? Would give five star if you had Zoho Work Drive as a cloud storage option!
