### 2/5 — Needs to be reset often and settings don’t save

*2023-05-22, version 3.0.0*

This app is a bit glitchy. If you’re having issues, close the app and open it again. I’ve been using it with my Sony camera to transfer files over FTP. When you turn FTP shared on, it defaults to off every time you close the app. And this is annoying because I have to close the app every time I connect it to my camera.

### 4/5 — it’s great and easy to use but …

*2021-06-16, version 3.0.0*

it’s really easy to use this app ! it’s really comfortable , supports many formats . but the only problem is that it can’t sort files correctly! you can’t sort your files according to name or size or date ! it’s scrambled. i wish there was an update to fix this problem

### 3/5 — please keep updated with the app!

*2020-11-05, version 3.0.0*

App has been acting strange after iOS 14 update
+ every time I copy something and open the app it says “copied from files” even though I haven’t copied or pasted anything onto the app. And now at the bottom where it says “edit” it’s formatted weirdly where it’s like zoomed in. All this started happening after I updated my iPhone to iOS 14. Please fix!

### 3/5 — Needs to Update

*2020-08-12, version 3.0.0*

This browser looks the same all the time and I’d say this browser needs dark mode and stuff. I would thank ya in return.

### 3/5 — 👎🏻👍🏻

*2020-03-29, version 3.0.0*

It’s a great browser and music player app That I discoved lately I love using it in playing music and creating cool playlists at the same time but I have two complains 
1- downloading music and movie files is not is to get and It’s not annoying to download a whole zip album and extract the specific file that I want from it or share the file to the app from another and external app
2- if I am using the music player for too long it keeps playing but stops showing in the lock screen or notification bar 

so I hope that you can fix those things 

and thanks in advance 😊

### 4/5 — Bugs...

*2019-12-05, version 3.0.0*

1. When I quit the app and relaunch it I find that repeat all is automatically turned on

2. Can't import Music

### 2/5 — Bad

*2019-11-24, version 3.0.0*

Can’t download anything on this app?

### 4/5 — Music Issue

*2018-12-26, version 3.0.0*

Would give it 5 stars if it would allow me to play music while my phone is locked. Although it does play, just on one song and would not play the next song. Please fix thank you

### 3/5 — It's okay

*2018-12-22, version 3.0.0*

I use this to save photos that I can't get by using the "save image" feature in safari and such. But why give us the option to download videos/audio if those file types aren't supported?

### 2/5 — fix this please

*2018-06-25, version 3.0.0*

won’t let me save to camera roll, app crashes

### 2/5 — Confusing

*2018-05-18, version 3.0.0*

Confused I need a video saying how to use it who agrees

### 3/5 — Good with problems

*2018-04-17, version 3.0.0*

The app work well but because I can't transfer my files to my computer with iTunes I have some problems now

### 1/5 — I want money back

*2018-04-14, version 3.0.0*

It’s a cheating app just to get my money without any money explained features. Apple is responsible to refund my money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-04-03, version 3.0.0*

Can’t use it for music.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2018-03-29, version 3.0.0*

### 1/5 — Not gonna lie

*2023-08-05, version 3.0.0*

Yeah not gonna lie this app is pretty bad. The other one is way better and less problematic in my opinion

### 1/5 — cant download mp4

*2022-10-12, version 3.0.0*

Cant download mp4, says unsupported file type

### 1/5 — Not For Loaded Files

*2022-04-17, version 3.0.0*

This appears to be a not-quite- functioning substitute for the Google Drive app, designed to handle files at Google Drive, not files on your phone. What we need is a substitute for Apple's crappy Files app.

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2022-01-02, version 3.0.0*

Please don’t download. Waste of time. Even trying once is not worth it

### 1/5 — ALL CONTENT LOST

*2021-08-02, version 3.0.0*

I used this app to save voicemails from passed on loved ones & when I got a new phone they were all GONE. I am devastated. I lost so many personal, irreplaceable recordings by relying on this app. I am praying someone can help me.

### 1/5 — Can’t download

*2018-12-31, version 3.0.0*

I tried to download some things. But the thing is, it doesn’t download, when you try to, all that comes up is a fake ad like “You Won a iPhone X!” Or something like that. It doesn’t do anything! I’m outraged.

### 1/5 — Unable to save files to computer

*2018-09-24, version 3.0.0*

The app does not allow you to download files to the computer using iTunes. No response from the developer on this issue after many comments by users and direct emails from me. Save yourself the aggravation and skip this app.

### 1/5 — worst app in the world

*2018-08-25, version 3.0.0*

vaffanculo

### 1/5 — Mr

### 5/5 — Add Browser

*2018-08-09, version 3.0.0*

Thanks for app but blease add browser button because I can’t downlod any video for youtube

### 5/5 — Needs new update

*2018-07-30, version 3.0.0*

I loved using this, I don’t have WiFi at home and a limited hotspot, I have unlimited cellular internet so I would download large files though my phone then transfer them through iTunes, after the update, it wouldn't let me do this. Why?, developers, please fix this. For now, don’t waste your time messing with this app.
