Comments on Explorer for Android

★★★★☆ Kent Solgule · Feb 12, 2025
Background copy doesn't work, not for large files anyway. It's pointless to use since device becomes unresponsive. It's better to watch the progress bar and have the opportunity to cancel the copy than to have a temporary brick. I copied between SD and internal mem, 0.5 to 3.5 GB files, android 10, 4 GB RAM. Haven't noticed this problem before, but maybe used mostly for many small files before.
★★★★☆ Victor M · Aug 11, 2024
One of the OGs and best Android File Manager around. Love being able to share, send, or 'Open With..." files to various apps and to G drive. Very light. 4 stars b/c ONE THING that is very frustrating: There's no way to "Limit Search" to a specified folder or group of folders. This is a problem b/c there are folders with thousands of thumbnails and gibberish-named encrypted files. Explorer searches through these folders every time which takes ages! 5 stars when I can omit these folders. Cheers

Ok. I selected 2 files and asked the app to create a zip first then a tar. I still have to figure out where this app created the zip/tar ! I know it is somewhere in the android file hierarchy.but where? In which folder? Y doesn't tha app say, ur zip/tar is created under ? Developer, pls note. Ur users are not tech-savvy as u r. Thanks.

Why can't the apps read the micro sd that I have, but other file manager apps can read the Micro SD
★☆☆☆☆ Aliaksei Ivanouski · Aug 17, 2024
This app has a critical bug during moving files. I've cut my images and paste them into another folder. Then error has occurred and all my files lost. This is ridiculous for a file manager. Android 14, Pixel 9.
★☆☆☆☆ Nick Stapp · Mar 5, 2025
This app has received a bad update that removes the ability to open the Android/data folder. It's stupid and unnecessary for an update to remove a feature. I installed an older version, opened Android/data, then updated, and I could navigate the folder just fine. I exited the folder and then couldn't reopen it. Please undo the stupid update and do not remove features in updates. The ability to open Android/data should still be included in the app for devices that support this feature.
