    My suggestions are for the app to have 1) an option to remember all previous SMB's connections [via preferences] and show them as a picklist (this way, I don't have to retype the IP address, just the password); and 2) a selection of SMB's version to use (I have some old NAS devices on my LAN that only accept SMB v1 connection). Anyway, thanks Colin for a great app.

    Great file explorer, packed full of great functionality including SMB. Some additional UI customizations would make this the perfect app.

    NEVER AGAIN! LOST AND ERASED ALL MY PICTURES (DEAD LOVED ONES), BOOKS, DOCUMENTS, AND MUSIC TRANSFERING USING THIS! Never before, till gave permission to open it. I don't use clouds. Wanting bigger font, against my better judgement. I even checked folders 3 times. Suddenly it was telling me I was disconnected. Everytime I opened JUST THIS APP, A folder would disappear. Permanently. It wasn't the drive, or card, a virus, malware, nor the phone. It was SPECIFICALLY THIS CODE/APP. Burn in hell.

    I love Root Explorer. One of the few apps I can say I've held onto for many years/many devices. I still use it everyday for work as a claims inspector.
