The design and user experience of this app are great, even on par with Files by Google. But, I got this app for the additional functionality of SMB (if I didn't need that, I'd just use Files by Google). The performance of SMB is atrocious. 19 seconds to transfer a 5mb file when two competitors (X-plore and Solid) both managed to transfer the file in about 2 seconds. On top of that, there are constant Java exceptions when transferring files. If these issues are fixed, I would love this app. Alas

1. It has no recently-edited files section. 2. The text editor automatically closes without saving any changes if you switch apps; the currently edited text document doesn't show up in the Recent Apps list, so it actually closes the moment you try to multitask. 3. In the text editor: if you tap the bottom of a long text file, the keyboard obscures the text area instead of auto-scrolling to adjust for visibility of the caret. Everything else is great; it's basically an open-source alt to Fx.

It's a great app it's slick quick and easy to use, it's a shame you can't move files folders and so on from internal memory to external and vice versa. If you can put that option I'll certainly give you 5 stars. Thank you for all the work you put towards the app.
