MiXplorer

You can download it from xda forum for free with all the bells n whistles, or you can support the developer by buying paid version of the app.

X-Plore file manager, been using it for a solid decade. Can start an ftp server locally as well as connect to outside servers, really versatile.

I like xplore also! I'm worried about it though.

Because it hasn't been update in half a year, or is there something else I'm not aware of?

[–] SidewaysHighways 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Nah I don't have anything specific and I haven't done any research into it. but I think I need to

Triggered me to do a quick check:

Their privacy policy looks alright; and while I don't like ads, they are gone in the minimum donation package of just 1 EUR, I think I did that just shortly after I started using them. https://www.lonelycatgames.com/docs/xplore/privacy - all the other parts seem privacy respecting, and the company is based in Slovakia, so has to respect GDPR by default. Website looks very dated and some of the other software has been abandoned a while ago, but they clearly state that and offer it as-is. Funny enough, I've also been using Disk Map for ages and never realized it's from the same developer.

CX File Explorer has one. And it can connect to a ton of protocols.

I think simple http server is similar, just no FTP.
