I originally downloaded this app for archival purposes, but after trying countless file explorers, I eventually decided on this one. It has two tabs, it's lightweight and has a nice layout. I don't expect that it will evolve into a fully fledged explorer, but it will do until I find oma proper one.

It's a great tool for decompressing zips. It's free and has no ads. I've been using it for a long time, however I put 3 starts to it because even if I have my phone rooted, the permission given to the app, and even with the root section activated in the app, the app doesn't allow me to copy files from the root path anyway! It displays: "operation completed with errors". I tried mixplorer with root and everything was alright. Good app but with bugs.
