With this version you can:
– Browse your files in list or gallery view

Please note:
– Only the following file types can be displayed: JPG, PNG, GIF, TXT and PDF. Animated GIFs will not animate.
– If you are running Android 4.4 (KitKat) the file management features will not work with files stored on a removable SD card. This is a KitKat limitation.
