iOS 14 Files app is still garbage

[Peepo]

Many thanks !! I have just tested it and is great, does what the Files app should do. I will buy the business version as well.

I also purchased FileBrowser BIz a year or two ago. It has evolved lots and works great. It also ironically works with Files App LOL.
Latest versions work great ou can have multiple tabs at top, navigate through folder structure, and even drag and drop.

Another vote for FileBrowser Biz. I have this app for 3 years now and it works great with my NAS and cloud services.

I have used FileBrowser for Business for many years ( https://apps.apple.com/es/app/filebrowser-for-business/id854618029?l=en ).

I can’t recommend it highly enough. If I could only have one app, this would be it. The developers are really helpful and keep improving the app.

Stuff like this is what really holds the iPad back from being a "Mac replacement". I know people are able to find workarounds, third-party apps, new workflows... but it's not great that you have to do all this to get work done. It's a shame, because the hardware is amazing and more than sufficient for a lot of people's computer needs. But to me even with all its new features, iPadOS still feels like a supersized phone OS.

It’s more of a work in progress

I agree, it’s fsckin s[-]!tty select files to delete, then go into deleted files folder aka trash there’s nothing in there, swipe down to refresh nothing, back and navigate other folders then back to deleted files folder, again nothing, close the app re-open, nothing WTF... 2 hours later maybe they show up...

While I share a lot of the criticism about Apple’s Files app, this is something I never had. What iPhone/iPad and iOS/iPadOS version are you on?

Sorry, would anybody recommended an alternative that is free ? I have been testing some but they are overcomplicated. Documents has too many features and I am just looking for a simple file browser with Cloud support for Google Drive, OneDrive, etc. I dont need an embedded web browser, or PDF editor, or anything like that. Many thanks.
