First of all, thank you for a beautiful file manager app that is free of background tracking, analytics, ads, etc. I have purchased the Plus license key and SMBv2 works just fine (wasn't working a few months back when I tried it).

I keep trying different file managers in the hope of finding one that fulfills all my requirements, but I am yet to find one. Here are some suggestions for your consideration:

1. Ability to save "view" and "sort order" on a per folder basis, with the additional option of assigning the setting to all sub-folders. And request you to kindly remove that bar on top with the toggle switch when we sort by date.

2. Custom Filters - since each one of us have our own requirements, how about providing a filter feature that can be bookmarked on the homepage with the option to place a launcher shortcut? You have provided a shortcut to images, videos, music, and recent on the home page. I would like to create my own filter that would list all apk files in internal storage, with its own custom "view" and "sort" settings. Sure, I can do this by using the search feature, but I will have to type in the extension and keep changing the sort order every time. Having a filter created and bookmarked would simplify the process. I would also like to create a filter for all documents type like .xlsx, .docx, .pdf, etc. This will be far more useful than the documents folder being bookmarked on the homescreen. The point is, ability to add multiple custom filters based on file types/ size/time range, with their own view and sort settings would be super useful.

3. Just as you have the "Recently Updated" section to show all new files (I am not sure about the time used to define new), with sections on top to filter images, videos, music, documents, etc, it would be highly useful if you could provide an "ALL FILES" section on the home page with a similar implementation as above, except that there is no time expiry. Here, we can view all files in the device (with the option to EXCLUDE certain folders/ locations/ file types) WITHOUT a folder structure. Again, please provide a custom "view" and "sort" feature. An option to exclude certain folders/ locations and/or exclude certain file types would be very helpful. For example, I would prefer to view my documents as a list, while my pictures and videos in gallery format! Don't want a change made in one place to reflect every where else.

4. Recycle bin feature.

5. Hide/ Encrypt files/ folders feature.

6. Large files filter - this will list all files bigger than user specified file size.

7. Organize/ Sweep feature - This will automatically move files from different (specified) locations into folders based on file type. For example, all images into an 'Image' folder, videos into 'Videos' folder, etc, WITHOUT affecting file creation or modification dates. This feature can be set to run on a schedule, including a 'Run Now' option.

8. Network shares - Kindly allow the option to exclude folders/ directories from showing up if they are not available. All those folders with a $ sign (Admin shares), when gone, leaves us with a much cleaner and nicer interface.

IMPROVEMENTS

1. Please remove (or provide the option to remove) the date stamp when viewing as icons sorted by date.

2. Please provide the option to view files under images/ videos/ music WITHOUT a folder structure, with the ability to have custom "view" and "sort" options.

3. RECENTLY ADDED section shows up files from locations that I would rather want excluded. For example, I had made a TWRP backup, and all files from the backup were showing in that list. An option to exclude certain folders/ locations and/ or exclude certain file types would be very helpful.

BUGS

Recently Updated section only lists files that have been generated after installing the app. The app isn't showing files that are just a couple of days older than the app itself.

That is it for now. I will update this post if there is more to add. Hope you would consider them.

Thanks.
