Access Paired Device's Files With Bluetooth
Allow Solid Explorer to access paired phone's files using Bluetooth.
A simple Bluetooth control panel (ON / OFF, Be Discoverable, Search, etc.) could be accessible on the left side drawer menu in the app.

How to create a bookmark?
I don't seem to be able to find a way to create bookmarks for any folders. The bookmark manager shows "nothing here" and I can't find a menu option to create a bookmark from the current location.
Any hints?

File modification-date batch editing in Properties
It would be great if we could edit the 'Modification date + time' for files.
It should be implemented in the SE Properties window and should support doing it for a batch of files with a confirmation prompt too.
Also within this there should be a 'Tap now' button to auto populate the modification date and time with that of the current date and time on the device.
I feel that this is just as important as the upcoming Batch Rename feature.
I have attached 3 screenshots of a now extinct Windows software called 'CFi Shelltoys' which shows this feature used on a Windows based desktop app

Tabs as page indicator for panels
Tabs would no doubt be so much more clearer to see and use than the existing 'spring' page indicator briefly seen at the bottom of SE 2.0 beta
I think that the main obstacle to tabs bring used was because of the existing Breadcrumb folder path bar. I do think that the Breadcrumb should get reduced in size.
Further to the Breadcrumb reduced in size, it should be ablr to collapse and expand within the tab and when collapsed use 3 horizontal dots '...' which can be clicked on to open it further and enlarge the tab.
Please consider this

Improvement in App Viewer and increase the font size
1.- In App Viewer would be nice to include a checkbox to show full information because at this moment takes a time. If this checkbox is off only show basic information.
2.- Include a setting to increase the font size of date/time and size of files.4 votes -
Setting to Disable thumbnails for all Image and Video files
Especially for cache purposes, it would be nice if there was an option in the Settings in future to be able to disable auto-generated thumbnails altogether in Solid Explorer 2.0

Recent history of Folders and opened files
I think for SE 2.0 a Recent History list of the last 50 or so accessed files and folders could be made available.
It would be most suited to be integrated into the 'Operations' window in SE 2.0

Password protected Zip file problem
One big problem I see is when opening a password protected Zip file it is saved to the temporary directory. Then from there on out it no longer needs a password to open. Is there a way to not save a copy of a protected zip?

Image viewer fails on archived images
When opening a zip archive containing images, Solid Explorer Image Viewer first shows an X on red background for every image contained. Scrolling right and then left again sometimes loads the image properly, sometimes it doesn't work. Seems related to image size, like it tries to load it before it is completely read from the archive, and thus fail.

design suggestion/feedback
Let me begin by saying that I've been using Solid explorer since the original beta. I'm also a huge fan of material design. A few months ago when the first file manager came out with material design, I installed it right away. It looked good, great even, but half a minute in, while trying to do some basic copy paste type operation, it hit me just how poorly it functioned as a file manager. It was clunky and unintuitive. Back to the comforting embrace of Solid I went. In the coming weeks, a couple more material style file managers were released, all just as clunky as the next.
Solid Explorer never followed the Holo design scheme to a T, but it fit in with the system. In my opinion, even improved on it. What Solid does best though, is be completely intuitive. It's one of the most full featured managers, yet the easiest to comprehend.
I say this in hopes that you will look to your design language in the original Solid explorer and bring more of it to the new version.
For example, I find the bottom action bar in Solid explorer far more useful than the FAB in the alpha. Another great thing about the bottom action bar, is that (especially on big phones) you can accomplish any action one handed with your thumb. In the alpha, with the overflow in the top right, it becomes a two handed operation.
Another thing your original Solid explorer does that I love, is the dialog that pops up on a long press. It looks great, has the options you need, and functions exactly as one would expect. The copy/move to the adjacent pane is the icing on the cake. It makes moving files around on a phone screen a million times better. The long press dialog is another item that can be done holding the phone with one hand. This too I find far superior to the FAB.
The alpha does look great however, and the hamburger menu is an improvement over the original. As a folder loads the files, the animations swooping up look amazing.
You do amazing work, and I think material design would benefit from your UI implementations

Manual screen-rotate for SE image viewer
It would be great if SE image viewer supported two-finger Manual rotating of wide images.
This type of Rotating is only done for the screen viewing purpose only. The actual rotation is not saved to file.
QuickPic features this exact same Manual screen-rotate feature
