FX [File Explorer]

Beschreibung

FX File Explorer is a file manager / media manager with networking and cloud capabilities. FX is designed to let you quickly and easily manage all content on your phone or tablet.

During beta, all features of FX File Explorer are free, including network, cloud, and root access. After the beta period ends, this version will become the "Lite" version. After the beta, FX will retain all local file management capabilities, including search, archival, the text editor, and file viewers. The network, cloud, and media features will be available as an add-on. The root features will be available as an add-on. The FX add-on modules will not be particularly expensive. You can also turn off paid features immediately in the settings if desired. No version of FX File Explorer will have ads.

ROOT ACCESS: Please download the FX root module from our web site if you are interested in testing it. The FX root module is free-to-use until the beta period ends.

NOTES:

* Streaming video playback: It is possible to play a large variety of formats with FX, but supporting formats other than 3GP/MP4 often requires one (or more) third-party video players to be installed on your device. A given third-party video player may deliver excellent performance on some devices and poor performance on others. If you experience issues with network streaming media playback, please first try transferring the media to the device and playing it locally to determine if the problem is related to network streaming. FX has been tested to work with a variety of formats and popular players; tested video file formats include 3GP, AVI, FLV, MKV, MP4, and WMV (many of these require third-party players).

* Bug reports: We greatly appreciate bug reports, feature requests, suggestions, and questions. Please send all requests regarding FX File Explorer to android@nextapp.com.
