FX

A powerful, privacy-focused file manager for Android.

FX File Explorer offers users a sleek Material Design interface without ads, tracking, or annoyances.

Privacy-Focused, Ad-Free File Manager

Designed to make file and media management on your phone or tablet as intuitive as on your computer, FX provides advanced features like multiple window support with dual-view mode, a productivity-oriented home screen for quick access to important folders, and a unique Usage View that reveals folder sizes and content composition as you browse.

Seamless File Transfers with FX Connect and Web Access

Transfer files effortlessly with FX Connect, which uses Wi-Fi Direct and NFC for phone-to-phone sharing (requires FX+), or manage your files remotely via Web Access, allowing drag-and-drop transfers and music streaming from your phone to your computer over Wi-Fi (FX+ required). The app supports SMBv2 for seamless network file access and handles a wide range of archive formats including Zip, RAR, Tar, and 7zip.

Robust Privacy and Built-In Tools

FX File Explorer safeguards your privacy by never tracking user activity or displaying ads. Developed entirely in-house by NextApp, Inc., it offers a robust suite of built-in tools such as a text editor with undo/redo and search, binary (hex) viewer, image viewer, media player, and shell script executor.

Unlock Advanced Features with FX+ Add-On

Upgrade to the FX+ Add-On to unlock powerful extras including access to networked computers via FTP, SSH, WebDAV, and SMB protocols, cloud storage integration (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and more), advanced app management by permissions, AES-encrypted zip file creation and exploration, and comprehensive media browsing with playlist management.

Advanced Root Access and Security

For developers and advanced users, FX supports root access with secure, isolated root browsing and powerful file system operations like remounting partitions, changing permissions, and executing shell scripts. The app also respects Android’s location permission requirements strictly for Wi-Fi Direct features and never collects location data.

FX File Explorer is ideal for users seeking a comprehensive, secure, and user-friendly file manager that combines desktop-class functionality with mobile convenience, all while protecting your privacy and data.
