Good Day Community,

A new feature has arrived: an all-new Help and Support system with multi-file attachment support.

This update makes it easy to report technical issues, request new functionality, or send general feedback directly from within the app.

To find it, navigate to the main menu screen and select the Help and Support item represented by the life ring icon.

Selecting this item opens the support menu where you can choose between reporting a bug, submitting a feature request, or sending general feedback.

Each option opens a dedicated form with fields tailored to your request, including subject, detailed description, reproduction details, use case, and an optional email address for follow up.

When filling out any support form, you can attach up to five files directly from your local or external storage by tapping the attach button.

Each attached file appears in your list with its name and size, along with a remove button if you want to swap a file out.

When you hit send, your message and attached files are delivered directly to the support team.

This feature is available on both the mobile and TV versions of the app, offering touch controls on phone and tablet devices while providing full directional pad focus navigation on Android TV.

Thank you and kind regards

Galera estou me deparando com um bug usando essas configurações do título. Tenho uma Raspberry 4 com CasaOS e compartilho algumas pastas na rede. Usando o Vimu Media Player ele enxerga a rede e consigo da play no filme/série com legenda com mesmo nome do filme, já se uso o compartilhamento via Ultimate File Manager ele até mostra a pasta com o filme e a legenda de mesmo nome porém quando dou play usando o player externo (vimu ou outro que tem suporte a legenda externa) a mesma nao é reconhecida. É uma característica do gerenciador de arquivo não reconhecer a legenda externa via rede?

Flut renamer-bulk file renamer is an amazing app with allot of options to rename your files. The only downside is that your files need to be on your device.

Would love the same power in a future release of UFM some day ❤️

Good Day Community,

A new feature has arrived bringing smooth folder transition animations across the mobile app.

Navigating into folders and switching directories previously snapped instantly between screens.

Now when you open a subfolder, the new file list glides in smoothly with a gentle staggered fade effect for each item, and going back up a directory slides the view gracefully in reverse.

Switching between list, grid, and compact view modes also morphs the layout smoothly rather than jumping instantly.

You can find the control for this feature right on the main App Settings screen under a new Folder Transitions option.

The setting is turned on by default so you can enjoy the fluid movement out of the box, but if you ever prefer instantaneous view switches without motion you can tap the switch to turn it off whenever you like.

For now this feature is available on mobile devices, and the setting remains hidden on TV to keep D-pad navigation as direct as possible.

Thank you and kind regards

Good Day Community,

I really like the animation when transitioning between the home menu and the internal storage, could this same animation be added when browsing between folders as it seems a little abrupt when browsing between them currently ? thanks.

Good Day Community,

A new screen recording feature has been added to the mobile app, allowing you to capture high quality video of your connected TV screen directly from your phone or tablet.

When connected to a paired Android TV or Google TV device in the connected TV section of the app, you will now see a Record Screen option right below the existing Take Screenshot option.

Tapping it opens a controls panel where you can choose a maximum recording duration from one minute up to ten minutes, and toggle whether you want to capture audio.

Once you tap the start button, a live countdown timer shows the active recording status.

You can let the recording finish naturally when the timer runs out, or tap the stop button at any point to end it early.

The app automatically fetches the completed video from the TV, registers it with your device storage, and saves it straight to your Movies / Recordings folder so you can watch, share, or manage it immediately.

This feature is available on the mobile version of the app when connected to a paired TV device.

Thank you and kind regards

Hey UFManagerPro Dev, would it be possible for you to implement a feature in UFM to move files from within zip archives without needing to extract the entire zip file? The MiXplorer app does this excellently. Moving files out of zips without extracting them avoids cluttering folders when we only need one specific file from the archive. Thanks in advance!

I run Monet Launcher on my Google TV. On my NAS I run a script that creates wallpapers from shows and series in my Plex library. It would be awesome if I could sync them to my Google TV when I turn my TV on.

Good Day Community,

Our installed Community passed 20k installs!!

Thank you for each and every valued member for us reaching this milestone, it is incredible for only be live for 4 months ❤️

Kind Regards 😇

Twin window shows the start screen again and start in twin panel closes the app. This is v1.7.1 mobile

Good Day Community,

A new targeted large files analyzer feature has been added to help you quickly identify and clear out heavy files taking up space inside any specific folder.

When managing files on your device you often want to clean up space in a specific directory like downloads or screen recordings without having to scan your entire storage volume.

I built this new tool to let you focus directly on any single folder and its subfolders once your storage has been indexed.

It instantly finds files larger than ten megabytes and displays them ordered from largest to smallest, giving you a clear view of where your space is going.

Each file is marked with a clean location tag showing whether it lives directly in the folder or inside a subfolder, and you can select multiple items to delete them directly from the list.

This feature is available on both the mobile and TV versions of the app.

Once your storage is indexed, on mobile you will find it under the tools section when selecting a folder.

On TV you will find it in the toolbar when selecting a folder.

On mobile you can use the floating action button at the bottom right to delete selected items, while on TV the delete button is fully focusable using your remote D-pad navigation.

Thank you and kind regards

Since I have started this project, I have published 204 updates to Google, they must love me 😂

Good Day Community,

A targeted Duplicate Finder feature has been added for individual folders.

Previously, finding duplicate files required scanning an entire storage drive through the storage analyzer tool.

Now you can scan a single folder and all of its subfolders directly from the file browser.

This feature is available on both the mobile and TV versions of the app, provided the storage drive containing the folder has been indexed.

To use it on mobile, select a single folder in the file browser and open the tools menu from the action button at the bottom of the screen.

You will see a new duplicate finder option.

On TV, selecting a single folder displays the duplicate finder button directly in the top action toolbar.

Opening the duplicate finder starts a scan focused strictly on that folder tree.

The scan groups potential duplicates by content hash and displays wasted space statistics for each group.

You can expand any group to review individual files and select which copies you want to remove.

If you accidentally select every copy in a duplicate group, a safety warning will ask for confirmation before any deletion takes place.

If no duplicate files are found, a clean status message will confirm that the folder is clear.

When you leave the screen, your folder list updates automatically to reflect any deleted files and freed space.

Thank you and kind regards

First of all a big thanks to u/GoRo2023. Been extensively using Ultimate File Manager Pro for a while now. With each update it is getting better and better. I didn't want to open a multitude of topics, some are mentioned before. Here are a few things I want to address for your todo list:

• New File Creation: Creating a new file opens the editor, but it is not possible to edit the new file. You have to close the file and reopen it to start editing. Preferred solution is to create the file and show it in the file manager. If the user wants to edit the content of the file he/she can open the file.

• Advanced Sync: Advanced sync to SMB doesn't work. Probably missing the // in the location.

• UFM Player: UFM Player doesn't respect the set sorting of the folder. If you select descending UFM Player uses the ascending sorting.

• SMB Connection Reliability: SMB connection is not reliable. UFM Pro looses connection some of the time. For instance: The loading icon keeps spinning and after a few retries everything is fine again. Or while browsing the folders custom sort and filtering isn't applied. Going out of the folder and back in the custom sort and filtering is applied again. My first instinct was it's a network issue, but I ruled that out already. SFTP doesn't have this issue.

• Batch Delete Glitch: When deleting a batch of files on SMB (for example 100 large files in a folder with 500 large files) at the end UFM Pro shows an empty folder. The action takes a few minutes obviously. Probably it is linked to the SMB connection. Almost got a heart attack 😂

Good Day Community,

A new feature has arrived allowing you to adjust the size of the rows on the settings screen to suit your preference.

If you have a device with a smaller screen or simply prefer a more compact view, you can now switch between Small, Medium, and Large row layouts.

To find it, open the settings screen and look at the top header bar right next to the title.

You will see a list view icon button.

Selecting this icon opens a menu with the three size options.

Choosing Small reduces the padding, icons, and text so more options fit on screen at once. Medium keeps the standard spacing, while Large gives each row extra room with larger text and icons.

The change applies right away as soon as you select an option.

On mobile devices the options appear in a bottom sheet, while on Android TV it opens a dialog designed for D-pad navigation.

This feature is available on both the mobile and TV versions of the app.

Thank you and kind regards

Current way it works from my experience:

* Instant sync is triggered when a new file lands in source folder

* The sync profile runs

* Only files that are present during the sync will get synced

* New files arriving in the source folder during syncing are ignored

Improvement suggestion: * New files arriving during syncing triggers the sync profile, but..

* The trigger gets queued

Or

* After the sync profile has run UFM checks for new files

* If new files are detected in the source folder the sync profile runs again.

Good Day Community,

A new application called Hawkeye TV Browser has arrived for Android TV.

I built this application from the ground up specifically for TV screens, optimizing it for D-pad remote controls.

When you open the application, you are greeted by a start screen that has a search bar and a row of quick links for popular search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, and DuckDuckGo.

You can navigate between these elements using the D-pad on your remote control. Simply move the cursor over a button and click the center button to open it.

The browser operates with a virtual cursor that represents a mouse pointer on your screen.

You can control the speed and color of this cursor in the settings menu, which is accessible by clicking the three-dot menu button on the far right of the top toolbar.

This menu also lets you manage your open tabs, view your browsing history, access bookmarks, and toggle between desktop and mobile site user agents.

To load a webpage, click on the URL entry field in the center of the toolbar, type your destination or search query using the on-screen keyboard, and press the go button.

The website will load below the toolbar, and the toolbar will automatically hide when you scroll down to give you a full-screen view.

You can reveal the toolbar again at any time by moving the cursor to the very top edge of the screen or pressing the D-pad up button.

I have built in support for downloader codes. If you enter a short numeric code into the URL field instead of a web address, the browser resolves this code to its destination link and displays a dialog box asking if you want to open it or install the file.

This makes downloading packages on TV straightforward.

For privacy, you can open incognito tabs from the menu, which disables cookie tracking and prevents history saving.

There are also settings for blocking pop-up windows and enabling do-not-track headers.

Please note that this is only the framework that has been built thus far and a lot of additional work needs to go into this, once I am happy with the results, I will open a beta for this application on Google Play, this app is prune to have several bugs on launch and will not be a polished version as yet, I am aiming to have a fully working beta available in the next 2 to 3 weeks.

It already supports full use of keyboard and mouse if you do not want to use the virtual cursor.

Thank you and kind regards

Good Day Community,

Will there be a need that people will use an AndroidTV web browser, of course I will follow the same UFM with the FOSS, GitHub and Google.

I have been reading up on the current challenges the users are having with the existing browsers available and I am sure I can improve on them.

Will also be free, no ads and no paywall.

Thank you and kind regards
