    Solid Explorer vs ES File Explorer Comments

    Positive comment by Guest · Sep 10, 2020

    Firstly, it's builtin network folder support appears to work. Next, this UI is quite pleasing. Some UI improvements are in order, like if you copy a file then the UI for that covers the "back" button that would normally bring up the drive listing.. but after some struggles I found out that you can swipe left to get that listing as well, thus I can copy items into a network folder.
