This is the app you're looking for. It gave me access to root files without requiring rooting
★★★★★Martin Oldemölle (BODYCOUNTER)· Feb 15, 2025
Root browser, a must for the Android file system, unfortunately can't be installed without root rights. Cheap price, moving and editing data is fun and effortless. I've installed it on other units and can't complain.

The app is superb, I could have given it full five star but the app really needs to be updated so that it's features will fully support Android 8 and above. You can still enjoy it fully on Android 5 and below. Features not accessible in higher Android versions include: SD Card storage, apps data root and others.

Poor doesn't show all folder loads of ads, the worst browser on android
★☆☆☆☆okman45· Sep 8, 2024
Download at your own risk. After I gave it total access to everything on my phone it started showing ad after ad never letting me navigate to the menu or stop the ads long enough to even use it. Also, is installed hidden files on my phone that I had to manually remove. I will probably spend an hour to remove the app entirely, I only had the app on my phone for 10 minutes.

I want to install file in flash drive root directory but app does not detect flash drive!

Disgustingly full of ads. You put a stain on what once was the best root browser for android
★☆☆☆☆Tim A· Jun 8, 2024
Having to watch 30-45 seconds worth of ads every 3rd tap is ridiculous. Makes this app completely unusable. Download CX File Explorer or ES File Explorer instead. Both offer root access, both have more features, and both have zero ads.
