[2013-07-11] A Google User: Perfect Light clean and simple. Thanks MADPATO! |
|
[2013-06-26] A Google User: Great Makes android more like classic windows |
|
[2013-06-23] A Google User: Works great |
|
[2013-06-15] A Google User: Can't combine! Only criticism is that you can't combine the widgets (at least not on Photon Q). I use this app to have quicker access to my PDFs that serve as makeshift eBooks. Therefore, it'd be really nice to combine all of the PDF widgets into one 'folder'. However when I try to combine them by dragging, i can't. please make this feature, I'll be using the File Shortcut app for the time being. |
|
[2013-05-13] A Google User: Nice :] An option to hide labels would be welcome though. |
|
[2013-04-25] A Google User: Does exactly what was needed A must have app, full access to file system+sd card. Direct access to pdf and jpeg made very easy. Wish I could have given 6 star. keep it up developers !! |
|
[2013-04-06] A Google User: where's the widget ? I have an Asus Nexus7 and installed this app. Long press the homecreen does not pull up "select widget" or anything like that. I installed this app and can't find it or it's widget or a shortcut to it. Where is it ? ? How do you run it? **** Edit: I found it! and ran it. Works but klunky. Edit: This app works just fine. It's the instructions that need rewriting. I changed my rating up from one star. |
|
[2013-04-01] A Google User: Good Good simple thanks |
|
[2013-03-28] A Google User: Does what it's supposed to do. Works fine. Has full access to the file system and the external SD card, contrary to what another user said. (Just as in Linux you click on the folder with two dots to go up one level and navigate to the desired directory.) ES Bookmark Manager worked on my last phone but not on my Galaxy Note 2. This is a good replacement. |
|
[2013-03-27] A Google User: Not Great Will not open all files, which is definitely a big letdown. |
|
[2013-03-22] A Google User: Works beautifully! @RICHARD... use file picker. Nav to top folder icon with the name ".." click & you will see external sd. At least that is how I found it on my Galaxy Note 10.1. Dont have sd on my Galaxy Nexus phone but file structure is the same so I assume nav is the same. |
|
[2013-03-11] A Google User: just do! |
|
[2013-03-01] A Google User: No good Doesn't work with Samsung Galaxy Nexus. |
|
[2013-02-11] A Google User: Very good Even you can import app icons to shortcuts |
|
[2013-02-10] A Google User: Perfect! this is exactly what i need!!! thank you! |
|
[2013-01-15] A Google User: Doesn't show up on ICS Uninstalling |
|
[2013-01-11] A Google User: Great Other apps are not stable. |
|
[2012-12-26] A Google User: Crashes Crashes if you use the "edit" shortcut on the icon and save your changes. Galaxy S III. Great, otherwise. |
|
[2012-12-22] A Google User: One and Only I tried 4 or 5 was to create a homescreen widget to an html file that will open in Naked Browser. Since Chrome doesn't open local files, most other shortcut apps won't work. But this pops up which browser to open in, and once done will open directly! My only reason for not 5 star is need for option to eliminate label. Even if you use no name the black label area shows up. |
|
[2012-12-21] A Google User: Unable to use external (sdcard) storage on TF201 Using Transformer Prime TF201 installed app and found it under Apps/Widgets. Looks like it might work but as my folders/files are on my sdcard I couldn't use it as the browse facility would only look at /storage/sdcard0. Shame. |
|
[2012-12-10] A Google User: Filling a small gap in Android This app does exactly what it says. A really useful facility which should have been standard in Android. |
|
[2012-12-08] A Google User: Great Apps Thank you so much for this apps, it's wonderful! |
|
[2012-12-04] A Google User: 9.5/10 Great No unnecessary user permissions. Makes shortcuts like on a pc and allows you to choose what icon shortcut takes. No complaints. If you could make foldera for your short cuts it would be 10/10 |
|
[2012-12-03] A Google User: So Simple Great APP. Very well done. SOOO easy to navigate. Worth every penny. |
|
[2012-11-20] A Google User: So simple Does exactly what it says it does simply and easily. Perfect! |
|
[2012-11-20] A Google User: Simple Success Thank you! |
|
[2012-10-25] A Google User: Invisible App. Downloaded app. Not in widgets. No shortcut. Shows under downloads. So what did it install. Hmmm. |
|
[2012-10-21] A Google User: Do what it says simple and useful! |
|
[2012-10-15] A Google User: should be a preinstalled program Toshiba Thrive. I tell everyone I know with an android tablet or phone to get this app! Ridiculous that this isn't a default app. Most practical app for those of us who study multiple manuals. I use it for work! |
|
[2012-10-14] A Google User: Does its job. A nice widget to have. Useful and you can also pick your own icons. |
|
[2012-10-14] A Google User: Works good The folder's icon is misalligned, though. |
|
[2012-09-27] A Google User: Great App Does just what is wanted very user friendly |
|
[2012-09-15] A Google User: This is what I am looking for! This app works well! From my main screen, I can just select The pdf files from a folder that I have created. Almost No waiting time needed. |
|
[2012-09-15] A Google User: Absolute Must Have! I had been looking for something like this for my tablet. I luckily stumbled upon this while looking for something else. |
|
[2012-09-14] A Google User: No Thrive Looks like a cool app, but nowhere to be be found in Toshiba Thrive file system. |
|
[2012-09-14] A Google User: Add Dropbox support! Add support for Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. and you get 5 stars! |
|
[2012-09-09] A Google User: Thank you! Just what I was looking for :) |
|
[2012-09-07] A Google User: excellent!! Superb! Easy to use! Thank you! |
|
[2012-09-07] A Google User: Great on the Nexus 7 Lets me view the content of my PDF ebook folder so I can launch them with whatever compatible app I want. Very nice! |
|
[2012-09-03] A Google User: Nice Work as advertised |
|
[2012-09-02] A Google User: Title says it all Àwéšòmě |
|
[2012-08-30] A Google User: Should Be Built In ! Google needs to contact this dev, buy this app, and build it into the stock roms! |
|
[2012-08-30] A Google User: Just what i were looking for Perfectly adds this obviously missing function for Android, moving the OS further ahead, making it more of a mobile PC than a cell phone |
|
[2012-08-18] A Google User: Ugly Works nicely, but the UI and widget icons are ugly. |
|
[2012-08-18] A Google User: RAZR can't find widget Used this on my t-bolt and loved it! Can find it on my RAZR sucks. |
|
[2012-08-14] A Google User: Just what I need I installed this both on my phone and my tablet. Both functions perfectly. Recommended download! |
|
[2012-08-08] A Google User: Just what I needed. This should be part of the OS. |
|
[2012-06-27] A Google User: Best I first got Astro, but found I can't open up html files with it. This app took care of that and now I can access my books properly and easily. |
|
[2012-06-22] A Google User: Excellent App Help me organize spreadsheet files which I used for calculations and stuffs. |
|
[2012-06-22] A Google User: Great app! This is a great app! One request: make so you can link to Shared Folders via IP address. |
|
[2012-06-12] A Google User: boo needs documentation its folder widget and seperately file widget sheeeeeeeesh! |
|
[2012-05-31] A Google User: Super simple & super Love it |
|
[2012-05-30] A Google User: Great on Gingerbread, nothing on Honeycomb This function was sorely missed... The widget works great on Android 2.3.5 but is nowhere to be found on an Android 3.2 tablet. A perfect addition would be the ability to define the app to open the file with (per shortcut, without setting the system-wide default.) |
|
[2012-05-19] A Google User: just can't find it Toshiba thrive. look for the widget everywhere. can't find it or have it come up. from home screen, nothing. from widget list, nothing. sounds wonderful if I could find it. |
|
[2012-05-13] A Google User: Finally! This should come automatically... I love being able to choose my own icon. Very simple, very useful. |
|
[2012-05-11] A Google User: Excellent app! One of many functionalities missing on Android. |
|
[2012-05-08] A Google User: A must! Absolutely necessary |
|
[2012-05-03] A Google User: Great! Why android doesn't do it be default? It is soooo useful! |
|
[2012-05-01] A Google User: Finally! Finally a solution for the missing "plain old shortcuts". This is Android after all, the techies' playground, and some fancy overpriced gadget. And I love that the shortcut is editable. Way to go! |
|
[2012-04-27] A Google User: Works Fine On Galaxy Ace Gingerbread Great app. Nice and simple, works well. At last direct access to PDF on my home page. Many thanks. |
|
[2012-04-23] A Google User: Good simple app A simple app I was looking for to create easy access points / shortcuts for my important files... Thanks. |
|
[2012-04-03] A Google User: shortcut lable Thanks for is app. The shortcut lable should be automatically inserted + user can change it. |
|
[2012-04-01] A Google User: Good Good . Would b better if we can customize the size of the widget... not just 1x1.... |
|
[2012-03-31] A Google User: is light and useful. would like an option to not set a name. rooted x10 mini. |
|
[2012-03-27] A Google User: Just what I needed. 5 stars for keeping it simple. Android should have this functionality by default. Thanks. |
|
[2012-03-14] A Google User: Very useful This is a feature android should have anyway, but it's nice to find it here. Easy to use. Works well. |
|
[2012-03-02] A Google User: ICS Not showing in widgets on ICS. Boooourns! |
|
[2012-02-24] A Google User: What i have been looking for. The folder pop up looks horrible though. |
|
[2012-02-19] A Google User: I love you Sincerely. Tried a bunch of apps, none work as well as this. Thank you. |
|
[2012-02-14] A Google User: The idea is cool. But can't I great a shortcut without any label? |
|
[2012-02-01] A Google User: No preview When select image or video, there is no option to display the preview, so i have to know the file name before create its widget. |
