SUMMARY

It is an app that provides more than enough features for accessing my phone’s internal storage, it is free and easy to use. Although it allows users to merge cloud storage into one app, it is not the most feature packed app for accessing Google Drive. Overall, I am very satisfied with it and it will be my default app choice for managing my files in my smartphone.
