Metro File Manager 3.0.1.0
Metro File Manager is one of the utilities that can provide a lot of handy features for anyone to use in handling the data stored onto the mobile device or in accounts associated with cloud storage services.
Friendly front-end focusing on practical use
The interface of this app is pretty well structured so as to offer a smooth navigation among the numerous functions. The good looks seem a bit left aside, but the graphics are decently designed and in tone with the system icon and color scheme.
The app hosts all the functions in a well organized manner, so that anyone can reach the desired tools with no efforts and moving through the menus and inside the lists of files is pretty fluent. However, at times it may take an extra second to load the items and their thumbnails, where any can be generated.
There are also some really annoying advertisements that appear to be stuck to the lower part of the screen and they will show up in most areas of the application.
Powerful management features at your fingertips
Metro File Manager is prepared to carry out a variety of tasks, most of which are basic and related to transferring, renaming or sharing files. This application also makes it possible for users to allow access to the data stored onto the phone via FTP and also manage online accounts, even if there are several limits that require purchase to remove.
A most coveted feature for many Windows Phone users is the ability to look into archives and extract the files and this app is able to handle these operations. Sharing content is possible not only through the usual methods, but also via Bluetooth and NFC (Near Field Communication).
This utility is also able to handle your cloud storage folders, as it integrates with OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive or Box and shows the remote containers as local drives inside the GUI, so you can manage the content a lot easier.
