App summary
On some Android™ devices, the file manager is already available on the system. We did not even pass it as name files, so we developed a shortcut to open it directly in the file manager
This app may not work on all Android devices.

To those of you complaining of missing features; this app is called "Files shortcut" for a reason, it opens the hidden inbuilt android file manager, the creator of files shortcut has no control over what features are available there, that is up to Google/Android Open Source Development team (the ones who make android OS)
This app can show other app's data files, lets you edit it without root access, ONLY if the other app has been embedded with 'Documents Provider' properties. Useful if you want to edit or save files from the Shared_Prefs folder of that other app.
Only way to access the files and contents of the "android" directory upon an android 14 device ,nice fast access to the systems default FM but giving users back access to their apps data an files with read,copy/paste and edit ability again, as android has seen it fit to block users from their created files!?
