Clean interface and lightweight. I chose Material Files because it supports Samba, and so can be used to transfer files between devices efficiently and easily.
This should be default on android
Clean interface and lightweight. Exactly what I was looking for in a mobile file explorer. Works pretty well on e-ink devices too.
