for me it's es file explorer pro with internet access disabled
MiXplorer
>>108777567MiXplorer with root. I'm not sure if it's better than the others, I used to rely on TotalCommander before that. It shouldn't matter what app you use as long as it's not trash that requires internet access without your consent

>>108777567ghost commander
>>108777567Solid Explorer is the best along with Cx File Explorer. I'd suggest just using copyparty at this point but for full feature solid explorer is the best.
>>108777567i only use it to unzip albums in my music folder so google files does the jobmaybe i should find a non google version though? does it matter? since the entire OS on my phone is made by google anyway

Solid Explorer
>>108779134This, Root Explorer, File Explorer+ and FX File Explorer. Everything is so-so.
>>108779239Honourable mentions go to X-plore File Manager, Total Commander and Amaze File Manager.
it just works
>>108777567Fossify File Manager
The one that came with the OS because it confuses me to have 2I used to have file kommander
>>108777567a very old version of that one, it has even ftp
>>108777567Depends on what I'm doing. On my phone, I go between Fossify File Manager and Material Files, depending on what my use case is. On my TV, I use FX
>>108777567The AOSP one
does other file managers have samba support? i've used x-plore before but nowadays it has disgustingly aggressive ads.
>>108780095Last time I used samba on an Android file manager was back when I was still using ES File Explorer back when it was still on Google Play like a pleb, I used it to access my home security cam footage.
>>108777567That's a tough one as I haven't seen one that does everything I want. I mostly access files on a remote server and this is where things fall apart.>MiXClunky interface, has issues with viewing large pictures and thumbnails on remote server.>Solid explorerSame issues with remote files. That said the interface was nice, used it for years until they broke sftp then I switched to MiX>X-ploreNo issues with remote files but the UI is too schizo for me.>Material filesNice UI, bit light on features. Can view large pictures on a server fine but has other issues and dev has stated support for fileservers is just an afterthought.>OwlfilesTried this because it actually worked really well on my iphone. Somehow has the EXACT same issue on android as the other apps.Also the implementation quality of protocols on these apps can really vary, with some being especially bad (Solid could only do like 2MB/s over sftp). WebDAV seems to be the fastest while still providing security.
>>108777567file manager 1.17.3.76 by Cheetah Mobile . so far i haven't found the perfect replacement..
>>108780469>>108780129>ES File Explorer>Cheetah MobileGod, this brings me back to when I didn't know any better and would just download the first app that came up in the search when I was looking for something like a file explorer or QR code scanner and it would almost always be some bloated chink adware.
SolidExplorer
>>108777567I've used CX explorer for a long time and it's perfect for me - it's like ES used to be but better
>>108777567MiXplorer, much better if rooted but can work without it.
I don't get it. It seems file manager plus and cx file explorer are the same app by the same company? Why? It even has the same features.

Can't beat the OG since Android Froyo
