▸ BROWSE WITH EASE
Navigate your files effortlessly with a modern, clutter-free interface. Use breadcrumb navigation to jump directly to any parent folder with a single tap. Quick access sections put your most-used locations — Downloads, Images, Videos, Audio, Documents, Camera, Screenshots, and Podcasts — right at your fingertips. A full file browser for internal storage, SD cards, and USB OTG drives.
▸ MANAGE YOUR FILES
Everything you need, nothing you don't:
✓ Copy, move, rename, and delete files and folders
✓ Create new folders anywhere
✓ Share files or open with any app of your choice
✓ APK installer: install apps from APK files
✓ Select multiple items for batch operations
✓ Sort by name, size, or date in either direction
✓ Show or hide hidden files and folders
✓ Progress indicators for long-running operations
✓ Customizable swipe gestures: choose what swiping left or right does
▸ PRIVACY FIRST
File Explorer works offline: it needs no internet connection, and your files never leave your device. Completely free, with no ads, in-app purchases, subscriptions, or sign-up. A file manager that respects your privacy.
▸ ANALYZE YOUR STORAGE
The built-in storage analyzer shows what's filling up your device, with each drive broken down by category in a clear chart. Tap a category to see its largest files first, then open or delete them to free up space.
▸ FIND ANYTHING FAST
Real-time search finds any file by name as you type, across internal storage, SD cards, and USB drives. Filter by files or folders, media type, or hidden items to find exactly what you need.
▸ BUILT-IN PDF READER & VIEWERS
No app for a file? File Explorer opens it itself: text and code files, zoomable photos and animated GIFs, PDFs (with search and password support on newer Android versions), music with album art, and full-screen video, with nothing else to install.
▸ COMPRESS & EXTRACT
Built-in ZIP support lets you compress files to save space and share them easily. Unzip archives with full support for password-protected files. No additional apps needed.
▸ KEEP FAVORITES CLOSE
Star the files and folders you use most and they'll be waiting on the app's home screen, one tap away. Add or remove favorites from the file list, search results, or recents, or clear them all at once.
▸ RICH PREVIEWS
See more than just filenames. This file manager generates thumbnails for images, video frames, app icons for APKs, album art for audio files, book covers for EPUBs, and rendered SVG graphics.
▸ DETAILED FILE INFORMATION
Open any file's details to see metadata tailored to its type: EXIF and GPS for photos, artist and album for audio, resolution for videos, plus details for PDFs, APKs, archives, documents, and more.
▸ MAKE IT YOURS
Tailor the app to how you work: pick which locations show on the app's home screen and reorder its sections, choose a start folder, set what swipes do and what shows under each file, and turn recent files off anytime.
▸ BEAUTIFUL THEMES
A modern Material Design 3 look in Light, Dark, or System default theme. Every screen looks great in any lighting condition.
▸ BUILT FOR EVERYONE
Works on Android 7.0 and above, in 20 languages. Arabic and Urdu get right-to-left layouts.
