Tabs on top
Can you make an option - tabs on top and be able to choose and see all the time which tab is used.
43 votesI’m personally against tabs – they will take too much space. I’m thinking about providing a page indicator that will take as little space as possible.

Support PDF
Support PDF reading. Just simple reading.
34 votesI can’t think of a reason why file manager should open PDF files. There are many apps for that, please use them.

New cloud under FAB a little pointless
Seriously, how often do you add a new cloud service? I usually do it once, when I setup Solid after a fresh install. FAB should lead to the actions you do often. I'd suggest having buttons for what appears at the bottom bar when you use the old layout option.

Download beta without G+
On your + page I noticed that you plan to release the app to a beta phase in around 2 updates. I understand the need to use a controlled group, such as +, for your alpha phase. However, I hope you will consider a direct download (similar to what Nova Launcher offers) or some other non-social method.
I would love to get involved with testing the app, as I did with the v1 beta. However, I do not use g+ or any social media platforms.

Fonts
I love material design, except for one element and that is font size. Is it possible to have bigger fonts? Other material design apps seem to have the same problem.

Toolbar and overlow menu polish
Hi,
Please see the two attached screenshots.
I have made some edits into how the toolbar could integrate the 'Rename' and 'Share' by simply adding another toolbar spacing row
Then for the Overflow menu, I have included 'Copy to' and 'Move to'
(font used = Trebuchet MS)I hope Mr Glodowski, the developer, is pleased with this
17 votesI can’t accept three rows in the action bar, that’s too much, sorry.. I added more actions in tablet mode for now. On phones there’s to little space for that.
As of the copy to/move to the idea is in planned stage. -
FAB menu is different not like in Google Apps
Maybe make it work like this: pushing the fab opens directly the pop-up where i can type the Name underneath include buttons for save as folder, file or cancel another more google-apps like Material design way would be the same pull up menu like in Google drive

Manage associations (just like SE 1.6)
It would be great (at some point later) if SE 2.0 could re-integrate the "Manage associations" list-feature in the settings.
It enabled control over which Applications got default opened with each file extension :)
12 votesThis feature is not needed now.
To associate an app with an extension: open the file and select “Always”
To clear the association: use “Open with” and open with different app using “Only once” -
Suggestion for bookmark panel
When there are 4 bookmarks then SE 2.0 shows them all. But when there are 5 or more bookmarks, it shows only the first 3 and we have to click one extra time to access the remaining bookmarks. So please make SE 2.0 show all the bookmarks at once without having to click one more time. Please refer the screenshots attached.
11 votesI would agree if the sidebar contained only storages and bookmarks, but with further updates it will display even more sections and I need to collapse them to take less space. Instead of that I can consider saving the expanded/collapsed state so for example if you expand the bookmark list it will be also expanded when you restart the app.

Option to disable the Green tick 'operation status complete'
I think it would be useful if there was an option to disable the Green tick that slides....I prefer the use of Android-system toast notification instead.
These are two related topics:

Toast notifications for file actions
I liked how classic SE 1.6x shows a toast notification for upon when a file is moved/copied/deleted
InSE 2.0 you get the little slide in Green tick thing, which is a cool confirmation but I would like some written text to actually tell me what file action has just occurred.
So alongside the Green tick, I certainly think a system native Toast notification should get displayed that looks identical to the one in SE 1.6x classic. It pops up and then fades away.
..Please support this
btw, on my test device, Samsung Galaxy S3 android 4.3, I get a toast…
11 votesFile actions are now confirmed with FAB.

Add detailed grid view
Can you add a mode of detailed grid view in vertical mode?
It is hard to find a folder or file in the new viewing mode in SEB, especially some location that contain lots of file.9 votesYou can already achieve this type of view by making the list smaller with the pinch gesture.

PIN to Access/Remount Protected Filesystem
When accessing protected parts of the filesystem (/data /etc) or remounting / to read/write, have Solid Explorer prompt a user PIN to grant privileges to the operation.
9 votesI don’t think this is needed for an app. It would be better if SuperSu supported this feature.
-
Please rename 'Options' and name it as 'Config'
I just think 'Config' would be a more suited, subtle name whereas 'Options' is a name that could make the user think about whole application 'options' which belong to the name of 'Settings'
I am talking about the 'Options' found in the top-right Overflow menu

Thanks for the feedback. Solid Explorer will feature additional icon sets so this feature is not necessary,

Replace the static "My Files" text on top with the current directory (and make the directory bar hide-able).
What the title says... I think the header bar (I don't know the correct Android term) is too big.
6 votesThe title is not static, this is a name of file system you are currently browsing. It’s not consistent yet, but I will improve it. Current directory is already displayed in the breadcrumb and it hides automatically when you scroll the list.

Option for changing Solid Explorer language
I think it will be nice if we have settings to change Solid Explorer language, not just English. I can help for translation into Romanian.
6 votesSolid Explorer will use your system language and there is no need for such option. I will translate the app for the final release.

6 votesI don’t see any reason to support Android Wear.
