AskFiles - AI file manager

AskFiles is a fast, clean Android file manager with AI-powered search, document scanner, secure vault, WiFi transfer, SMB network browse and more — completely ad-free.

ASK AI ABOUT YOUR FILES:
Type or say questions in plain English — "what's my largest file?", "how much storage do I have left?", "what videos are on my phone?". AskFiles AI answers instantly using your actual device data. No cloud upload, no privacy risk. Your files never leave your device.

SMART SEARCH — SEARCH INSIDE YOUR DOCUMENTS:
Search inside PDFs, Word, Excel and text files — not just filenames. Type "invoice", "contract" or any keyword and AskFiles instantly finds every document containing that word. No internet. No AI. Pure on-device indexing — fast, private and unlimited.

DOCUMENT SCANNER:
Scan documents, receipts and letters directly from the app. Multi-page scanning with automatic edge detection, crop and rotate — powered by Google's ML Kit. Saved instantly to your Documents/Scans folder.

EXTRACT TEXT FROM IMAGES:
Point at any photo — receipt, letter, whiteboard, sign — and instantly extract all readable text. Copy it to clipboard or use it anywhere. Fully offline, powered by Google ML Kit.

VIDEO SUMMARY:
Tap any video to see a storyboard of key frames and scene labels — know what's in any clip without playing it.

PDF TOOLS:
Create PDFs from photos, extract pages as images, and merge multiple PDFs into one — all on your device, no internet needed. Saved automatically to Documents/Scans.

CREATE FILES & FOLDERS:
Create new folders and text files directly inside AskFiles. Type your notes, save instantly — no need to open another app.

BROWSE & MANAGE:
Browse every folder on your device. Copy, move, rename and delete files with ease. Long-press any file for instant actions — share, move to vault, add to favourites, copy or rename.

STORAGE BREAKDOWN:
See exactly what is using your storage — broken down by images, videos, downloads and documents. Find large files fast. Clear, honest figures.

SECURE VAULT:
Lock sensitive files — photos, documents, videos — behind biometric authentication or PIN. Files stored privately on your device, invisible to other apps. Back up your vault to the cloud and restore anytime.

DUPLICATE FINDER:
Scan your device for duplicate files wasting space. Review and delete duplicates with one tap.

RECYCLE BIN:
Deleted files go to Trash first — 30 days to restore before permanent deletion.

HOME SCREEN WIDGET:
See your storage usage at a glance without opening the app. Live widget, always up to date.

VOICE NAVIGATION:
Tap the mic and say "Open Images", "Open Vault", "Go to Browse" or "Find Downloads". Fully voice-controlled.

LIGHT & DARK MODE:
Switch instantly with one tap. AskFiles remembers your preference.

CLOUD BACKUP:
Back up your secure vault to Google Drive, OneDrive or Dropbox. Restore anytime from the Cloud tab.

PASSWORD PROTECTED ZIP:
ZIP with AES-256 password protection — share files securely over WhatsApp or email.

WiFi File Transfer:
Transfer files between any devices on the same WiFi — no cables, no apps, just a browser.

NETWORK BROWSE (SMB):
Connect to your PC, Mac or NAS over WiFi. Browse shared folders, download and upload files — credentials encrypted.

Share files via QR Code:
Long press any file, tap "Share via QR" — any phone, tablet or laptop on the same WiFi scans the code and downloads directly in their browser.

SD Card support:
Browse, copy and move files between internal storage and SD card. Detected automatically when inserted.
