Description
While there are several robust file managers available, many do not adhere to Material Design principles. Even those that claim to follow Material Design often exhibit various minor design imperfections, such as issues with layout, alignment, padding, icons, and fonts, which can create discomfort for users like me, though these flaws might not bother everyone enough to seek out a solution. This dissatisfaction ultimately led me to develop my own file manager. Additionally, numerous popular and trustworthy file managers are closed-source, and while I occasionally use them to access and modify files requiring root permissions, I find myself feeling uneasy about granting any closed-source application such extensive access to my device. After all, this device contains a wealth of personal information, and the level of trust is solely based on the developers' intentions. Therefore, it's crucial to prioritize transparency when it comes to access rights within applications.
Description
Root Explorer serves as the premier file management tool tailored specifically for users with root access, allowing them to explore the entirety of the Android file system, including the often inaccessible data directory. It boasts a variety of features such as support for multiple tabs, integration with cloud services like Google Drive, Box, and Dropbox, as well as network support through SMB, a SQLite database viewer, and a built-in text editor. Users can also create and extract zip or tar/gzip files, work with rar archives, employ multi-select options, execute scripts, and perform searches, along with remounting capabilities, permission adjustments, and bookmark creation. Additionally, the app provides file sharing options via email or Bluetooth, image thumbnails, an APK binary XML viewer, and functionalities to change file ownership or groups, create symbolic links, and utilize an "Open With" feature, along with MD5 checks and shortcut creation. We are committed to assisting you with any issues you encounter while using the app, and if we are unable to resolve your concern, we offer a no-questions-asked refund policy. Furthermore, it is used by the Google Drive SDK for adding new accounts when needed, ensuring that existing accounts remain unchanged and that only the account name is accessed. Overall, Root Explorer is an indispensable tool for anyone looking to take full control of their Android device's file system.
