  1. Upload to cloud on wifi only

    When uploading to the cloud, add an option to only upload when wifi is available. ( the file would be cached and uploaded when wifi is avaliable.)

  2. Code Editor

    Include a code editor into Solid Explorer.

    This would feature:
    - Syntax highlighting
    - Line numbers
    - Find & Replace (Including Regex)
    - Code block highlighting
    - Monospaced Font
    - Undo/Redo
    - Automatic Indentation

    Ideally, this would automatically be used for supported extensions such as .js, .java, .html, .css, .sh, etc.

  3. Fluid faster scrolling support in the file manager

    Scrolling could be made to have that same liquid fluidity that many iPhone apps feature in where a user gently scrolls and it fluidly scrolls faster than average with greatly reduced friction.

    On HTC devices with Sense 6, the HTC 'Messenger' app has this. Also the Android app exDialer also features this to an extent.

    It's something to do with tweaking the listview and friction within the code of an Android app.

    It would so very much suit Solid Explorer to have this,not just merely animation wise but more importantly for when scrolling down a really long list of content…

  5. Photo viewer sort

    When you sort a folder of pictures in the Explorer and then open one in the Image Viewer, upon swiping between pictures in the Viewer it uses alphabetical order regardless of the setting in the Explorer. It would be much more intuitive and useful if the order displayed in the Explorer also applied to the Viewer.

  6. music

  8. Very slow at deleting (folders with) many files!

    Solid Explorer Classic and Solid Explorer 2.0 are very slow at deleting (folders with) many files. It varies between some seconds for just one file to round about 7 files per second - and this is way too slow for a modern file manager. Android's built-in file manager removes thousand of files within seconds.

    A quick Google research shows faster methods of deletion in Linux and a command like this should (maybe) solve the problem:

    find <path> -name * -delete

    Files will be instantly deleted instead of transferring them to rm at first.

    It would be nice, if you solve…

  9. Add unavailable SMB storages

    It seems to be impossible to add known SMB storages, that currently isn't accessible ...?

    I'd say it should be possible to add storages, independently of whether SE actually is able to connect to them upon the time of adding ...?

    :-)

  10. Name USB Devices

    I have got one question concerning the OTG function. Is it somehow possible to give connected devices specific names?
    When I'm travelling I work only with my phone and so have a SD-Card, USB-Stick and 2 Harddiscs connected at the same time. So they are all called USBx for x=1,2,3,4.
    It would make it a lot easier to name the different Devices with specific names to get a faster overview.

  11. Changing view mode for this folder and its subfolders

    Right now, you can only change view mode for only one folder at a time. I propose to add an another checkbox (or even to replace the existing one) to change view mode in this folder and all the subfolders. This can be useful in Pictures folder, for instance, when you have ten sub folders which all contain pics too.

  12. Option to change filename when a file is shared to solid Explorer

    When saving for example a downloaded file or a photo using the share to... function, the filename can't be changed. Only the folder can be selected. Could you please also provide the option to change the filename in the save to dialog box. ( as is usually the case in desktop os) (I know you can do it in solid Explorer, but this requires opening SE en navigating to the same folder

  13. Extract contents of multiple zips together.

    When I select multiple zips and tap "extract", it extracts only one zip and not all. Ideally, it should extract the contents of all zips that are selected.

  14. Find locally stored installer (.apk) files.

    Okay, so you can search for apk-s, or view installed ones from the navigation drawer(side bar) but there isn't really an option to view locally stored installer files. There could be a 3rd folder along with Syetem apps and User apps in the Applications section where you could find your local apk-s, or even other apk-s from connected cloud services (if it didn't take much longer to find them too). Apk-s found in the cloud could also have a little corresponding icon of the service.

  15. Remember SSH key passphrases

    It would be really useful to be able to login to sftp servers without having to enter the passphrases every time

  16. Share to local folder (instead of cloud)

    Hi, I really like the new Solid Explorer. As a former ES File Explorer user, the only thing i miss is the "share to local folder" function. It would be great if you could press the share-button in any application and then have an option to save the file to any local folder. There is already a similar function, but it only allows to save the file to a cloud service, which I do not want.
    Thanks :-)

  17. Unnecessary last screen-step during creating new cloud connection

    After successfully established connection with Dropbox app should connect to it automatically. In my opinion the last step is unnecessary. Maybe simple green rectangle animation like in Google Drive connection will be ok.

  19. Add support for extracting .xz archives

    Solid Explorer can't extract .xz archives, so it requires using a different app such as winrar to extract it. Would be great if Solid Explorer supported this in a future update.
