Most importantly, after tapping on "copy" or "move", it doesn't stay in the current directory, but opens the Download folder instead. This means, if you wish to move items to a subdirectory of the currently viewed directory, you first have to manually navigate all the way back to the directory you were in before tapping on "copy" or "move". This is something even Windows 95 did better. | Most importantly, after tapping on "copy" or "move", it doesn't stay in the current directory, but opens the Download folder instead.

In earlier versions, it even had a bug where cancelling a file move operation would cause source files to be irrecoverably deleted without having been moved to the destination.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.google.com/photos/thread/106201?hl=en |title=Photos disappeared after moving to another device folder - Google Photos Community |author=Gökhun Güneyhan |date=2018-04-24 |access-date=2026-06-08 }}</ref> | In earlier versions, it even had a bug where cancelling a file move operation would cause source files to be irrecoverably deleted without having been moved to the destination.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.google.com/photos/thread/106201?hl=en |title=Photos disappeared after moving to another device folder - Google Photos Community |author=Gökhun Güneyhan |date=2018-04-24 |access-date=2026-06-08 }} ([https://megalodon.jp/2023-0228-0023-32/https://support.google.com:443/photos/thread/106201?hl=en archive])</ref> | ||
But hey, at least they implemented Google Drive integration. To their credit, they implemented the ability to browse ZIP and even TAR and 7z files, create ZIP files, a built-in EXIF viewer, the ability to open multiple instances, selection by tapping the file icon (faster than holding), a large grid view suitable for image seeking, and the file transfer progress indicator is displayed as a notification, which is better than a pop-up that blocks interacting with the file manager, like in Samsung's file manager. | But hey, at least they implemented Google Drive integration.
