Built-in FTP/HTTP servers and drag-and-drop transfer for easy sharing
SAF provider enables cross-app file editing and access

Very great app. Definitely a great choice for regular file management & cloud storage management 👌🏾

I can use it to work with S3 buckets. UI isn't as customizable as some other file managers, but the capabilities, especially the S3 capabilities, make this my favorite file manager now. I've got paid versions of like half a dozen file managers, but, because of the S3 capabilities, this is the one I use. I haven't gone "pro" yet, as it's little expensive for a file manager and I don't do subscription software. I might go pro in a couple of months though.

This app was recommended to me by Microsoft Copilot :-) because I was looking for a file manager app that supports cloud and MEGA. This app opens files fast, has a logical structure and many useful features. Eg, 1. This is the first file manager that shows the full names of files in grid view. Other file manager show full names only in list view. 2. Selecting 'Sort folder first' shows my photos and videos really from current date and not sorted by apps like most file managers do. 3. Many more!

No longer works for sending files over FTP (sending fails after few seconds). Hopefully this is a temporary bug in the latest version.
