ES File Manager had it figured out 10 years ago. Then it died without a good alternative, but the old version still works pretty well.
There are usable file managers, that's not really the issue. But no two pieces of software seem to agree as to where data ought to be.
Finding anything in that shitty maze of directories is a nightmare. And lots of crap accumulates in downloads for no obvious reason.
New versions of Android are effectively breaking file managers, "for security"
How so? I've just upgraded, so want to know what I'm now missing out on.
You just have to grant some extra permissions now.
