The Recents tab in the Files by Google app gets a nifty makeover.

What you need to know

  • Google has redesigned some elements of its popular file management app.

  • Users will be able to view their recent files in the form of a carousel, just like their Memories on the Google Photos app.

  • The new change is seen in the latest beta and some official versions of the app.

    Does anyone use Google files in this community? I use solid file explorer due to its dynamic search function, dual pane layout, and smooth colorful interface.

        Yeah, I have that as a backup option as it’s super smooth and supports multiple windows.

      I use Google files in an effort to minimize the amount of 3rd party software on my phone - particularly when it comes to file access.

        Simple Mobile tools were sold to a shady figure a while ago. I would use fossify or material files if I were you.

          Nothing has happened to the application yet but I looked this up and it’s information that will certainly encourage me to switch sooner rather than later. I was already shopping around because development had stalled (now I know why). Thanks for the heads up.
