Android's file structure is bad, yes. But does iOS even have a file structure? In my very limited time using iOS, I couldn't find anything resembling a file explorer.
It does have a files app now and it's so good compared to Android file apps right now
android has no official "files" app though?
google files is a technically a 3rd party app and the AOSP files app is usually hidden and used only as a file picker.
the AOSP file picker is so ass, everytime I get a new android i have to install Mixplorer (not affiliated with the Xiaomi brand) just to have a sane experience picking my files
Isn't that because Android is system agnostic?
Been a while since I used a true bare stock Android device. G1 must have had a file explorer though right?
yeah vendors usually ship their own file explorer apps
The Samsung ones rudimentary, but it does the job
