The app is very good but... Is it that hard for developer to add the same functionality of the previous ES File Explorer, i.e. using different colors for backed up, updated and not backed up apps? Or I'm missing something in the settings...

I was just looking for something that would play a slideshow from a USB drive. This works great. No complicated setup. I just selected my drive. Chose a photo. Then selected slideshow and BOOM... there it was. So simple.

I've been trying to install the Restored Content Mod for KOTOR2 Mobile and this is THE ONLY file manager that would allow me to copy files into Android/data. 5 stars just for that.

Unacceptable that the cleaner settings has no settings for SD cards. Some of us use the SD card for backup. Not even restorable from the recycle bin unacceptable.

Super cheap copy of ES File Explorer with Ads everywhere. THERE'S AN AD EVERYWHERE. EVEN WHEN YOU TRY TO EXIT, IT SHOWS AN AD. And most of the features are locked behind a paywall. Not recommended at all.

Repeatedly scans phone in background and shows notifications and then shows an annoying full screen ad with sound on launch then shows another full screen ad asking to purchase the app via a subscription and then another popup asking are you sure when you try to close it. It's just too much it should be a small one time fee or free open source for a basic app like this not a monthly subscription. Uninstalled.
