Comments on WiFi File Explorer for Android

★★★★★ Works great, interface is easy to use. 50 file limit is fine to test it out.
★★★★★ This app is a gem. Makes the wireless file transfer between mobile and PC so easy. Must download for easy transfer between files.
★★★★★ OMG this app is a lifesaver, ignore every review that says they are having problems with this app, coz it's either their network issue, or mobile issue, because this works perfectly fine here, and I have tested it with a 14gb zip file
★★★★★ Still using this in 2022 after many years of digging me out of holes when I have no cables! Works flawlessly!
★★★★★ Wish the paid version of this app was still available for my device. Play Store claims it isn't available for my Android version, but the free version installs fine?
★★☆☆☆ Password protection is insecure, set a cookie named ID to x99_dooblou_cookie and go to /storage/ and you won't need to log in. The limits set on the nonpro version seem easy to bypass as well. Best of luck to the developer to get gud.
★★☆☆☆ Unable to upload file on android TV's USB storage. Internal storage works fine, but file doesn't go in ext storage. Thanks
★★☆☆☆ I uploaded too many files onto Wi-Fi explorer pro I had downloaded onto my Sony bra via tv and now the screen is just all black and I can’t access any files or stream video, YouTube, etc. or even any cable channels… just a black screen of death. This app (and my own ignorance on how to use it) may have cost me my tv. If anyone can help me out with this issue I'd really really really appreciate it 😨🙏

If you do have problems using this application on your WiFi network, it is most likely a configuration problem with your router/network. Please contact the developer if you have any questions and he may be able to help you ... but please don't rate low because your network isn't configured properly - that isn't the application’s fault ;)
