I use one called X-Plore. It’s actually very good. Even has a WiFi server, conpressed archive support, etc. but the downsides are that it’s close sourced and some features are behind a paywall (though IMO they are worth it).

So I was thinking of moving to some free or open source software. Any recommendations?

    I am a long time Solid Explorer user and I’ve tried MiXPlorer a few times but always went back to Solid. What does MiXPlorer do that Solid can’t?

      I’ve only tried Solid for 5-10 mins whenever I needed something quickly off the play store (need to download mixplorer from XDA), so maybe I haven’t seen everything Solid does. But a few key features of mix that I like:

      • App organisation - apks, install, uninstall, view system, etc
      • Seamless root support
      • Tabs that can be saved
      • A less hand-holding experience throughout. The UI generally stays out of your way
