User reviews overwhelmingly complain about relentless ads (even for paying users), frequent crashes and startup failures, and inability to open or use the app. Additional issues include poor storage compatibility (external drives and hidden files), file operation hangs, and misrepresentative ads. A minority note the app used to be good, but current versions ruin the experience.

### Pros

- Very good
- Was a great app in the past

### Cons

- Excessive ads and inability to remove them (even when paid)
- Frequent crashes and startup failures; won't open
- Hangs when deleting files
- Cannot access external storage (e.g., SanDisk) and cannot see hidden files
- Invasive advertising and misrepresentative/fake-clone behavior with pop-ups
