Comments on Solid Explorer Classic Unlock for Android

★★★★★ Nicholas Manara · Oct 30, 2021

Solid Explorer is a fantastic tool for maintaining your phone. It goes far, far beyond the default Android file app. ***HELLO DEVS*** Could you please make this unlocked compatible with Android/Google TV? I can install Solid Explorer on our Chromecast with Google TV but the unlocked is "not compatible". Thank you in advance.

★★★★★ Rick Merker · Mar 27, 2020

Worked: but only after reinstalling solid explorer after installing license. Here was my process that worked. Phone has New Solid Explorer installed. I installed solid explorer classic license. I installed solid explorer classic. I opened solid exp classic. I uninstalled new solid exp. I reinstalled new solid exp. It recognized license. I uninstalled solid exp classic.

★★★★☆ Tony Gerardis · Jan 12, 2024

Have been sideloading this app for a while on various devices and works pretty well. Decided to finally buy it to support the dev. Was one of the first Android file manager apps to support SMB shares ages ago via a simple, no nonsense UI, and that was the main reason I had started using it. Sideloading on Android TV works, but interface is not optimized for it. Would be nice if updated to properly support Android TV.

★☆☆☆☆ Yujian Zhang · May 17, 2022

Does not work for me after using a new phone. Solid explorer keeps bugging me to pay to unlock full version, although I have already purchased this unlocked. Uninstall and reinstall the app and unlocked does not help.

★☆☆☆☆ Steven Uchina · Jun 11, 2021

No longer works. Bought to unlock, but the trial is not removed and the app is trying to force me to buy another unlock. Unacceptable!

★☆☆☆☆ Erand Jazaj · Mar 4, 2025

Bought it several years ago. If you change phone the main Solid Explorer App Doesn't recognize the unlocking application. No answer or support from dev, tried all their advices to restore purchase with negative results. Very disappointed
