Best file manager in my opinion and i have used many over the years. Open source, beautiful and clean design, no additional fluff, well thought out user experience..i can go on and on. It keeps the most essential functions of a file manager that most people will use and does it extremely well. Highly recommend.

Overall best app. Would have given it five stars if i did not have a sdcard. Edit: as you replied. I dont want to permanently use sdcard as my default opening space. I meant to have an optiom as "when i open material files there should be 2 options listed. One saying internal storage and the saying sdcard. " then i can tap on anyone and enter whichever i want.

This is probably the best free files app on Android today. Has both FTP support and smb support in addition to local storage. Clean, pretty and easy to use. Brilliant.
