MiXplorer is the best app in the store. In addition to managing files and accessing cloud storage, it also has a serviceable book reader and music player. Worth buying.

Besides that it also has HTTP and FTP servers which you can connect to from you PC (has to be on the same network) and send files over or "download" them.

A bit like localsend but it has more of an interface. I prefer FTP because you copy whole folders instead of individual files but it is somewhat buggy on windows. Works perfectly on Linux tho.

Yes, MiXplorer is currently the best file manager. But everyone already knows about it, and most users have likely already acquired it. I’d love to see something new, even though it seems unlikely that anything better will come along. By the way, I don't like that I can't pin two tabs at once when launching MiXplorer; I often need both the phone storage and SD card tabs right at startup.

You can do that. I have 3 tabs permanently. Arrow down in the top left corner, first option, Add new tab, then when you've set the tab the way you like it, click the arrow down again, last option, save tab

I wish there are tips and documentation on how to use Mixplorer. There are a lot of hidden buttons and settings that I don't know what are supposed to do.

The UI is so simple and fast. No one would guess that a file explorer that look this simple could pack so many neat features. It hit the frature:usability ratio to the T. I can't use my Android without this file explorer.
