Hey everyone
AmazeFileManager:
AmazeFileManager is one of the best open source file manager on android.
It is very light and very simple to use,
It has a very simple user interface which is really easy to get used to.
here i bring you a post regarding suggestions to make AmazeFilerManager even more amazing than it already is.
its an open source app its source code is available on github
1.Storage analyzer:
A very important features which many file managers don't have.
As we all know that we download a lot of things which we don't even use but ends up as space occupying junk in our phone.
To find that file we have to search each and every folder of the storage to find that file which we done even use to save us some trouble i think having a Storage analyzer will be very useful in this case
which looks something like this:
as you can see the above picture gives the total storage and used up storage of my phone
and if you tap on Analyze it will scan and let you know what all files are there in one place so that you dont have to go looking for them in each folder to free up space.
as you can see it has given me the data of how many files are there.
and you can scroll down and delete all waste files in my case it is 29.3gb that's a lot of space,
which are mostly zip files because i flash roms and other unnecessary stuff which i can delete
and save up some space.
it even gives us App associated Folder data whose unnecessary files we can delete manually
which is really convenient and easy to hunt junk files,
we can delete all the unnecessary data which is using up the space of the phone.
i would really like to see this feature in future
now moving on to next suggestion
2.Recycle bin:
A very well known feature from laptops and desktops where u can recover the files you deleted by mistake
this is a very good feature as we all know small kids use phones and they do a few things which they don't know they delete some files they delete some photos they delete a lot of stuff
and sometimes even adults delete some things unknowingly and regret it later so having a recycle bin could be really useful in a file manager.
that's the recycle bin and it will contain all your deleted files where u can permanently delete the file or recover it .
for example:
as you can see im deleting one file and it will go to recycle bin.
from my storage it will go to the bin something like this
as you can see the deleted file is still there in recycle bin.
Now if i want i can recover it or delete it permanently.
you can even check properties of the file or do a web search of the file if it is downloaded from web
which could be really useful according to me
a recycling bin is a very useful feature i feel all file managers must have.
we delete some files which are very important to us accidentally and
later we regret it that we lost an important file.
so having a recycle bin could prove very useful according to me.
so that we can recover the file we lost.
therefore we wont be regretting for the files we accidentally delete
because the file will still be there in recycle bin where u can easily recover it.
and That's it for today
i will hopefully bring more suggestions for this app if i can.
i would really like to see these features in the future.
Thank You!
