Still no access, you cannot see the files in android/data on your sdcard, where I have everything saved to, on the main device you can see the files, and have acces to the files through andriod data, by pressing use this folder on explorer, but when I access my sdcard, I do not get this option, and my file are still hidden away on the sdcard android 11. Hopefully you can fix this on your next update.

Good app to access Android folder that's now restricted on Android 11. The stupid restriction doesn't apply for USB for some reason. If you have another device or a PC, using USB you could still reach the folder. That's right, an external device could reach more files than the current device, without any tricks... Thanks Google

One of the best file explorer app I am using since years. After some updates, I find that if we move some files & send the process to background, the app crashes after completing the moving task.

Why do I need to pay to use root features, I know supporting the dev is a good thing but it would be way easier to make it all 9nr app with a donation button or a server small ads with a remove ads donation, if this is a thing where the main app is coded differently then I understand a and app but atleast let us use it without paying for something I already could do for free maybe not as well as you make it work but still... sorry if I sound rude, I don't mean to.
