I love this file manager, it is so much better than Files by Google! This file manager app initially opens to display files and folders, like a file manager should, not that garbage collection that the Files by Google app initially opens with. Thank you!

Use nearly all the fossi apps as there are not any embedded ads or trackers, are smaller, and use less resources. Unfortunately, fossi apps may be disappearing this Fall when Google takes control of all android phones. Unfortunately, no one, including Google's AI, will answer whether fossi apps will be pulled from the store. If so, three new non-android phones will be purchased to maintain some freedom, much less if any surveillance, and AI intrusion. Google is out-of-control.

Prompts me with "Donate to Fosify" The only options are "Purchase Ossify Thank you app", or "Later". I cannot close the prompt without selecting either. I don't want to select "Later". So instead I decided to leave a negative review.

Constantly crashing trying to open and move files from a folder with 300+ files. Literally incapable of even opening the folder.

App will not move files without notification permissions. Do not lock basic functionality behind unnecessary permissions. I do not need a progress bar.

Your App was good until- I have 9ย GB of internal storage, and 156ย GB of SD storage availability- Your app is telling me"Not enough SD storage space"even though it has 'all files acess'- when I attempt to move files from internal to SD- Nothing I do will change this even uninstall & reinstall~ Please fix this!!
