Owlfiles - File Manager

Thumbnails take a very long time to generate on smb shares and sometimes does not show at all. I have many files that are 100+ mb. Please optimize so that it only reads the first page of a pdf instead of the whole file for example.

I would say it works better than the explorer in windows or finder in Mac OS X. I tried to connect to a SMB1 server with no problems. Found it instantly. Very big level of customisation. Only problem is that you can only have one server saved at a time, but you can buy more.

Greate explorer with movie feauture!

Fin app som enkelt gir deg mobil tilgang til dine filer mellom ulike enheter. I mitt tilfelle gir den meg tilgang til PCens bilde-, musikk- og videobibliotek på iPad, med mulighet for både å lese/spille av filer direkte (via trådløs ruter), laste ned til iPad for bruk offline, eller laste opp til PC. Fungerer visstnok med flere enheter også, men jeg har kun prøvd som ovenfor. Ekstra bonus at du ikke må installere noe på PC, kun slå på fildeling, og del ønskede mapper.

Koblet til NAS uten noen problemer

I purchased this app when it was called FE File Explorer Pro for 4.99. It seems that the developer renamed the app and put all the pro features behind a subscription. And then to appear like nothing happened, launched another app called FE File Explorer Pro and charges 4.99. I would suggest that you stay away from this shady developer.

Excellent app, just works exactly as expected

Using the app to stream videos with an Apple TV, 2019 iMac and iPhone 11. Fantastic! Easy! Versatile! Seamless! Oh yeah: Perfect!

If your looking for an app to be able to view SMB files or offload files onto a NAS or something like that. It’s great in that sense! Im able to offload pictures and videos from my phone at a slow speed but it gets the job done. I can add folders, drag and drop files into folders and etc. The problem is video playback. If a file is VERY compressed it will play the video no problem. But if the video is long and not very compressed or is 4K 60 (even 1080p 60) this app just struggles to play it. Before anyone says it’s my server or my network it’s not. This app maxes out at 1Mbps when receiving information. I watched the server statistics when using this app, to troubleshoot and it was only sending out again, 1Mbps. Meaning this app is limiting its intake. When watching those same videos on a computer, they run flawlessly. It’s only this app I have the issue on. However, photo viewing and music playing with this app does work great, no problems at all. But that would be expected as there smaller file sizes. Overall this is a very good app and does what I mainly need it to do. Offload videos and photos from my phone. I just wish the playback for videos was better. Again that totally seems fixable on the developers end.
