File Manager:

APUS File Manager has a built-in file manager that offers basic operations such as copy, paste, move, delete, rename, and more. Users can also sort and filter files according to name, size, date, type, and more. There is also a search function to quickly find specific files.

App Manager:

The app manager allows users to uninstall, backup, and share apps. Users can also install APK files from their storage or other sources. The app manager displays the name, size, and APK version of installed apps, and offers options to sort and filter them.

Cloud Storage Integration:

APUS File Manager also integrates with cloud storage providers such as Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive. Users can easily access files stored in the cloud through the app and manage them accordingly.

Root Explorer Support:

The app has a built-in root explorer that allows users to access system files on rooted devices. With this feature, users can edit system files, change permissions, and access hidden files.

FTP Server Built-in:

APUS File Manager also has a built-in FTP server that allows users to transfer files wirelessly between their devices and computers. Users can toggle the FTP server on and off and set a username and password for secure transfers.

Zip and Unzip Files:

The app supports zip and unzip operations, allowing users to compress or decompress files and folders easily. This feature comes in handy when trying to send large files over email or other messaging platforms.

Comparison:

Compared to other file manager apps like ES File Explorer and Total Commander, APUS File Manager is a lightweight app that offers basic and advanced features without any ads. However, it lacks some advanced features that make it less flexible compared to other similar apps. For example, ES File Explorer Pro supports converting files and has more options when editing metadata. Total Commander also offers more customization options and supports syncing files across different devices.

Tips:

  • Use the search function when trying to locate specific files quickly
  • Activate the FTP server to transfer files wirelessly between devices and computers
  • Connect cloud storage accounts to the app to access files on-the-go

Conclusion:

APUS File Manager is a great file manager and explorer app, ideal for users who want basic and advanced features without any ads. However, if you are looking for a more feature-rich app, you may want to try other options such as ES File Explorer Pro or Total Commander.

I would recommend APUS File Manager to anyone who wants a lightweight and easy-to-navigate file manager app with cloud storage integration and FTP server support.
