Review summary

The Mega Plugin for Solid Explorer is praised for its seamless integration and enhanced user experience within Solid Explorer, offering smooth media playback and effective cloud file management. However, multiple users report instability issues, including failures in downloading large files and frequent connection errors like "expired" or "bad session ID." Problems with two-factor authentication and limited features such as lack of Android TV support and shared file viewing have been noted. There is also frustration regarding slow developer response to these issues. Despite drawbacks, some users find it superior to using the Mega app directly.

Pros

Integrates well with Solid Explorer providing access to Mega cloud storage within the file manager.
Offers improved user experience compared to the official Mega app, including smooth media playback with external players.
Supports useful features like batch renaming and provides a clean user interface for managing Mega files.
Considered better than using the clunky official Mega app and supports pause-resume functionality during downloads.
Works well for managing cloud files alongside other services like Google Drive within Solid Explorer.

Cons

Unstable behavior especially when handling large file downloads often resulting in failures without error messages.
Frequent connectivity errors such as "expired", "bad session ID", and "unknown error" when trying to access Mega accounts.
Issues with two-factor authentication causing repeated token requests or inability to connect.
Lack of developer support and slow or no response to user complaints and bug reports raising user frustration.
Missing features such as shared file viewing and Android TV support leading to dissatisfaction among some users.

2024-11-18	*****	I'm using this app very well, it has much better UX than official one. However, it seems there are some bugs in this plugin, especially when downloading large files. When downloading a file larger than 1GB, it fails with 50% probability without any error message. The download terminated at a specific file size, where the file size is determined file by file (0B, a few MBs, 1.62GB, ...). So, I expect it is related with Mega itself, but rclone works fine so I think you can fix this.

2024-05-13	Je*****	Unstable. Closes explorer app when pasting file to MEGA folder. File is not transferred to MEGA. If they fix it I'll retry it....

2023-03-13	To*****	My mistake. I thought it was a "mega pack of plug-ins" for the main app. Not what it really IS. It's a single plug-in for management of a web file host account called MEGA. My mistake. Never opened the app after installing, uninstall done as part of refund request.

2022-12-24	St*****	Works perfectly! Great to be able to use one excellent app for almost all my file management needs on the go! Automations and sync is the only functionality I have to do with another app (I use AutoSync for that).

2022-05-03	Am*****	I bought this plugin but now uninstalling as it lacks following functionalities: 1. Not available in Android TV. 2. Cannot view Shared Files just like in Google Drive and OneDrive. I really wish these features were available as Solid Explorer is one complete file manager. Once these are available, I'll be happy to buy it back again, with 5 star rating.

2021-08-16	Ko*****	Good plugin for solid explorer. Works smooth. There also have refund option if you don't want it. it is the full access to solid explorer with 40 gb space @₹39 But don't use third party apk. Overall basic solid explorer is more than enough @30 rupees. Checkout this plugin if you really need.

2021-02-09	Sa*****	Pretty good app. Useful too. at first the features were a bit confusing. When you get a hold of it, it so smooth. Everything works. Mega cloud plugins, G Drive browsing. Everything.
