Overall a great experience. The only improvements are: 1) Multi select files in a folder. If there's 20 files and i need to select from 5th to 14th be nice if there was a way to select easier instead of clicking each one individually. 2) I'd like the option of a compact view of the folders/files. For me the gap between each one is too much and i can't find an option to change. Introducing for me would make it 5 stars

Great app that works well. It would be nice to have a small (1x1) widget to switch the FTP server on and off. Ideally with different colours for the status. Reply: Thanks for your suggestion. I do use that, but it means I have to remember to swipe down (at least once) just to check its status. The advantage of a small widget is that the status can be seen quickly without any actions. It would also mean only one press would be required to switch the server on or off.

It's a fantastic app that is clean, unintrusive and has some features others don't - like DocumentResolver API. Personal feedback: I'd like to be able to close the keyboard once I've typed my search and am looking through results. Also being able to apply sort order to results would be cool too, I can't figure out what the currently implemented sort is? Thanks!
