<\/p>\n3. Solid Explorer<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nSolid Explorer, as the name suggests, is quite a \u201csolid\u201d file manager offering. With the usual file management features, Solid Explorer also includes Cloud storage support and ability to hide files & folders. The app also brings ability to ZIP (ZIP, 7ZIP, RAR, TAR) & extract\u00a0files\u00a0along with support for various network file sharing protocols (FTP, SFTP, WebDav and SMB\/CIFS). There are also paid plugins available for USB OTG (On-the-go) support, Cast and more.<\/p>\n
The app\u2019s interface is beautiful and functional too,\u00a0with two panels\/windows available through a swipe, so that you can easily drag & drop files between folders and multitask. Moreover, there\u2019s also ability to customize the app\u2019s interface with various options and icon packs.\u00a0The app is fluid and we found no lags at all in our testing. Solid Explorer is a great choice if you are looking for a Material Design implemented File Manager with support for USB OTG and multitasking.\u00a0It\u2019s available for a\u00a02-week free trial on the Play Store after which you will have to pay for the Premium version.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/span> <\/strong>trial<\/a>\u00a0with in-app purchase of $0.45 for Premium version)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 4.1 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
4. File Explorer<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nFile Explorer, previously known as FX Explorer is a popular file manager app, which aims at bringing you a cohesive experience along with the features. The app brings some cool gestures, visual clipboard,\u00a0file viewers, pinch to zoom support, themes, home page customization, usage view and more.\u00a0File Explorer also supports add-ons or plugins and there are add-ons for cloud storage sync support (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box and SugarSync), root, network file management (FTP, SFTP, SMB, WebDAV)\u00a0etc.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a split view feature as well, which as the name suggests lets you open two folders in a split view mode. Overall, we love the app due to its beautiful user interface and some unique features like gestures, visual clipboard and split view mode. Moreover, the app feels fluid at all times and we never felt any stutters in our testing. The app is available\u00a0for a\u00a07-day trial on the Play Store after which you will have to buy the Plus version through an in-app purchase.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/span><\/strong> trial<\/a>\u00a0with in-app purchase of $2.50 for Plus version)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 2.1 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
5. Gira File Manager<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nGira File Manager is a simple yet elegant file manager app that works as it\u2019s supposed to. The app implements Material Design along with the action button to add a new folder. The app includes support for cloud storage services\u00a0(Premium version only) and\u00a0also lets you add any folder or file to the homescreen for quick access.\u00a0There\u2019s also support for app management, USB OTG drives, various file formats including GIF, file compression (Zip, RAR, Tar, Tar.gz, Tgz, Tar.bz2, and Tbz formats) and more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While the app is available in a free version, it incorporates ads, so you can make in-app purchases to remove ads or buy the Premium version, which also lets you try upcoming features first. If you want a simple file manager app, which doesn\u2019t confuse you with any complex features and keeps things clean and fast, you should definitely give Gira File Manager a try.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>with in-app purchases)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Varies with device.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[ad type=”banner”]\n
6. File Commander<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nFile Commander is a feature rich and advanced file manager for Android that features a clean interface amidst many features. The app categorizes your files and lets you add custom categories like Recent files on the home page. The app also supports cloud storage accounts and network file sharing protocols (Wi-Fi Direct, FTP\/FTPS server, Remote sharing and Bluetooth) as well. One cool feature that we really liked in our testing is the ability to continue longer copying or moving tasks from the background.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
File Commander is available in a free ad-supported version but it misses out on many cool features that the Premium version packs. The Premium version brings features such as Secure Mode (lets you hide or encrypt files & folders), Storage Analyzer, Recycle Bin (restore files with ease), hidden files access and also removes ads. The free version is good but the ads can be somewhat nagging here. The UI is clean &\u00a0simple and its premium features certainly make sure it stands out in the crowd.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>w<\/span><\/span>ith in-app purchase of $3.99 for Premium version)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 4.0 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
7. Cabinet BETA<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nMinimalist apps have their own charm and one such app is Cabinet. The sleek looking file manager app is in Beta but it\u2019s already a highly rated app on the Play Store. The app looks beautiful and\u00a0not very feature rich but it has got its basics right, with support for usual file manager features and compression support. It also lets you see a file\u2019s or directory\u2019s detailed properties and supports third party plugins & root access. The app also lets you customize the app\u2019s primary & accent colors, thumbnail color and more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cabinet is still in Beta, so we should see more features and plugins make their way to the app once the app is released as a stable version. While it lacks advanced features, the app should work for most users. If you don\u2019t like tinkering with your apps much, Cabinet Beta should be a good choice. Thanks to the beautifulMaterial Design interface\u00a0& fluid performance, Cabinet is indeed a great file manager app for people looking for something simple and easy to the eye.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/span><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>with in-app purchases<\/strong><\/span>)<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 4.0 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
8. Total Commander<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nTotal Commander has been a popular file manager app since a long time and it still remains viable, thanks to its advanced features. It supports various file\u00a0sharing protocols (FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, LAN, OBEX) and cloud storage support through plugins.\u00a0Other key features of the app include media streaming player, directory history, ability to alter permissions of a file and more. If you have a rooted device, Total Commander supports it and lets you manage system directories.
\n<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t like the complex and hideous user interface the app incorporates but its features do bring some value. Once you get used to the app, you will know that the app lets you manage your files quickly, thanks to custom shortcuts being located at the bottom toolbar. It also supports a two panel mode, which is available via a swipe, so you can easily drag and drop files.\u00a0Total Commander is recommended, if you are looking for powerful features in an app that does not hog the resources. However, the app leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the interface. Total Commander is free, so you can check out and decide for yourself.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a><\/span><\/strong>)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 1.5 and up.\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[ad type=”banner”]\n
9. ASTRO File Manager<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nASTRO is a popular choice for many users and that\u2019s because it brings the all familiar Windows explorer look. Along with usual file management, the app lets you compress files into ZIP format. It also supports popular cloud storage services (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box and Facebook) and lets you transfer files between them with ease. ASTRO brings various other features like Mcafee antivirus integration, ability to set default search locations, search index options and customization options. The app also brings some useful\u00a0tools for Android such as\u00a0App Manager, SD card usage tracker and a Task Killer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you are a Windows PC user, ASTRO File Manager\u2019s interface should feel right at home for you. While the feature list is not as rich as other apps on the list, it is good enough and gets the work done.\u00a0While the file manager app is available for free on the Play Store, you can get the Pro version, which removes ads.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0Pro $3.99<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>)<\/li>\n

<\/p>\n5. Gira File Manager<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nGira File Manager is a simple yet elegant file manager app that works as it\u2019s supposed to. The app implements Material Design along with the action button to add a new folder. The app includes support for cloud storage services\u00a0(Premium version only) and\u00a0also lets you add any folder or file to the homescreen for quick access.\u00a0There\u2019s also support for app management, USB OTG drives, various file formats including GIF, file compression (Zip, RAR, Tar, Tar.gz, Tgz, Tar.bz2, and Tbz formats) and more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While the app is available in a free version, it incorporates ads, so you can make in-app purchases to remove ads or buy the Premium version, which also lets you try upcoming features first. If you want a simple file manager app, which doesn\u2019t confuse you with any complex features and keeps things clean and fast, you should definitely give Gira File Manager a try.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>with in-app purchases)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Varies with device.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[ad type=”banner”]\n
6. File Commander<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nFile Commander is a feature rich and advanced file manager for Android that features a clean interface amidst many features. The app categorizes your files and lets you add custom categories like Recent files on the home page. The app also supports cloud storage accounts and network file sharing protocols (Wi-Fi Direct, FTP\/FTPS server, Remote sharing and Bluetooth) as well. One cool feature that we really liked in our testing is the ability to continue longer copying or moving tasks from the background.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
File Commander is available in a free ad-supported version but it misses out on many cool features that the Premium version packs. The Premium version brings features such as Secure Mode (lets you hide or encrypt files & folders), Storage Analyzer, Recycle Bin (restore files with ease), hidden files access and also removes ads. The free version is good but the ads can be somewhat nagging here. The UI is clean &\u00a0simple and its premium features certainly make sure it stands out in the crowd.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>w<\/span><\/span>ith in-app purchase of $3.99 for Premium version)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 4.0 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
7. Cabinet BETA<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nMinimalist apps have their own charm and one such app is Cabinet. The sleek looking file manager app is in Beta but it\u2019s already a highly rated app on the Play Store. The app looks beautiful and\u00a0not very feature rich but it has got its basics right, with support for usual file manager features and compression support. It also lets you see a file\u2019s or directory\u2019s detailed properties and supports third party plugins & root access. The app also lets you customize the app\u2019s primary & accent colors, thumbnail color and more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cabinet is still in Beta, so we should see more features and plugins make their way to the app once the app is released as a stable version. While it lacks advanced features, the app should work for most users. If you don\u2019t like tinkering with your apps much, Cabinet Beta should be a good choice. Thanks to the beautifulMaterial Design interface\u00a0& fluid performance, Cabinet is indeed a great file manager app for people looking for something simple and easy to the eye.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/span><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>with in-app purchases<\/strong><\/span>)<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 4.0 and up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
8. Total Commander<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nTotal Commander has been a popular file manager app since a long time and it still remains viable, thanks to its advanced features. It supports various file\u00a0sharing protocols (FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, LAN, OBEX) and cloud storage support through plugins.\u00a0Other key features of the app include media streaming player, directory history, ability to alter permissions of a file and more. If you have a rooted device, Total Commander supports it and lets you manage system directories.
\n<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t like the complex and hideous user interface the app incorporates but its features do bring some value. Once you get used to the app, you will know that the app lets you manage your files quickly, thanks to custom shortcuts being located at the bottom toolbar. It also supports a two panel mode, which is available via a swipe, so you can easily drag and drop files.\u00a0Total Commander is recommended, if you are looking for powerful features in an app that does not hog the resources. However, the app leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the interface. Total Commander is free, so you can check out and decide for yourself.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a><\/span><\/strong>)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Android 1.5 and up.\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[ad type=”banner”]\n
9. ASTRO File Manager<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nASTRO is a popular choice for many users and that\u2019s because it brings the all familiar Windows explorer look. Along with usual file management, the app lets you compress files into ZIP format. It also supports popular cloud storage services (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box and Facebook) and lets you transfer files between them with ease. ASTRO brings various other features like Mcafee antivirus integration, ability to set default search locations, search index options and customization options. The app also brings some useful\u00a0tools for Android such as\u00a0App Manager, SD card usage tracker and a Task Killer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you are a Windows PC user, ASTRO File Manager\u2019s interface should feel right at home for you. While the feature list is not as rich as other apps on the list, it is good enough and gets the work done.\u00a0While the file manager app is available for free on the Play Store, you can get the Pro version, which removes ads.<\/p>\n
\n- Install:<\/strong>(Free<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0Pro $3.99<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>)<\/li>\n
- Compatibility:<\/strong>Varies with device.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Best File Managers for both casual and power users<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\nAccording to us, these are the best\u00a0file managers for Android and we are pretty sure one of these apps would certainly cater to your need.\u00a0If you are a power user who wants all the advanced features, you should try the likes of File Manager HD, File Commander and Total Commander. Is multitasking & usability your priority? You can choose between ES File\u00a0Explorer,\u00a0Solid Explorer or File Explorer. Want a clean interface?

Along with usual file management, the app lets you compress files into ZIP format. It also supports popular cloud storage services (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box and Facebook) and lets you transfer files between them with ease. ASTRO brings various other features like Mcafee antivirus integration, ability to set default search locations, search index options and customization options. The app also brings some useful\u00a0tools for Android such as\u00a0App Manager, SD card usage tracker and a Task Killer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you are a Windows PC user, ASTRO File Manager\u2019s interface should feel right at home for you. While the feature list is not as rich as other apps on the list, it is good enough and gets the work done.\u00a0While the file manager app is available for free on the Play Store, you can get the Pro version, which removes ads.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n8. Total Commander<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\nTotal Commander has been a popular file manager app since a long time and it still remains viable, thanks to its advanced features. It supports various file\u00a0sharing protocols (FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, LAN, OBEX) and cloud storage support through plugins.\u00a0Other key features of the app include media streaming player, directory history, ability to alter permissions of a file and more. If you have a rooted device, Total Commander supports it and lets you manage system directories.
\n<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t like the complex and hideous user interface the app incorporates but its features do bring some value. Once you get used to the app, you will know that the app lets you manage your files quickly, thanks to custom shortcuts being located at the bottom toolbar. It also supports a two panel mode, which is available via a swipe, so you can easily drag and drop files.\u00a0Total Commander is recommended, if you are looking for powerful features in an app that does not hog the resources. However, the app leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the interface. Total Commander is free, so you can check out and decide for yourself.<\/p>\n
