Comments on Root Browser for Android

★★★★★ Prince Adigwe · Mar 12, 2026

This is the app you're looking for. It gave me access to root files without requiring rooting

★★★★★ Martin Oldemölle (BODYCOUNTER) · Feb 15, 2025

Root browser, a must for the Android file system, unfortunately can't be installed without root rights. Cheap price, moving and editing data is fun and effortless. I've installed it on other units and can't complain.

★★★★★ chandrashekhar wankhade · Oct 26, 2025

I purchased this to remove the add. Still the app is showing ads I am very disappointed. Please refund if you are not ok with purchase. Updated on 26Oct2025. Almost 09 Years Later this one is still the best file browser on Play Store. Also, my problem has been solved by the developer.

★☆☆☆☆ Tadej Andoljšek · Sep 7, 2025

Spams you with ads aggressively to the point of making the app unusable.

★☆☆☆☆ CMDR SophiaSPRKLZ · Aug 27, 2025

Disgustingly full of ads. You put a stain on what once was the best root browser for android

★☆☆☆☆ ViviSectia · Jun 6, 2024

It never showed any of my files. It only showed ads.

★☆☆☆☆ Tim A · Jun 8, 2024

Having to watch 30-45 seconds worth of ads every 3rd tap is ridiculous. Makes this app completely unusable. Download CX File Explorer or ES File Explorer instead. Both offer root access, both have more features, and both have zero ads.

★☆☆☆☆ Kenny Spark · Nov 1, 2023

Poor doesn't show all folder loads of ads, the worst browser on android

★☆☆☆☆ Jose Manuel Gonzalez · Jan 23, 2024

I want to install file in flash drive root directory but app does not detect flash drive!
