User Reviews

Many users report the app fails to open PHP files and lacks proper file selection capabilities, rendering it unusable for them. Some note it only shows code without output and experiences bugs like poor state handling. However, a few users find it effective for quickly viewing PHP files and specific scenarios such as debugging or plugin development, provided file access permissions are properly granted.
Pros
  • Does exactly what it's supposed to when file access permission is granted.
  • Can view PHP files successfully in some cases.
  • Useful for viewing code files sent by others.
  • Works well for specific use cases like PocketMineMP plugins.
Cons
  • Unable to open PHP files on many devices, especially Android 11.
  • No file association or file exploration to easily choose PHP files.
  • No output is shown; only code is displayed.
  • Needs better state management and UI improvements.
