In the Android thread within the most popular Internet forum, Reddit, Google has just announced the news of its relatively recent application to free up space on our phones, Files Go. An application that, at first, only offered the opportunity to effectively 'clean' our phone of junk and duplicate files and that, over time, has progressed to this new update. It must be taken into account, however, that Files Go is still an application that is in the beta phase, in tests, which means that users who decide to install it on their phones may give errors.
If you haven't tried the Files Go app yet, you can check it out on its page in the Google app store. It is a completely free application, it does not contain and its installation file has a weight of 9.4 MB, so you can download it using the phone's data whenever you want.
These are the new features that we can see in the Google Files Go application.
Advanced File Explorer
Many Reddit users asked for it, and thanks to them Google has reacted and paid attention to them. It didn't make much sense to promote an application to delete files without us being able to browse through all of them From now on, you won't need a file explorer anymore thanks to this new update. We will be able to see each and every one of the files that we have on our phone, in order to act accordingly. In the lower bar of the application you have, right in the center, the icon to start exploring the files on your phone.And not only can we find the installed files, we also have a tab to see all the applications we have installed.
Safe application installation
Surely they have sent you the installation file (.apk) of an application because you will be able to watch all the televisions in the world, or it is a paid application and you do not want to go through the box. Now, thanks to Files Go, you'll be able to see if the app being shared with you is legitimate or if, on the contrary, it contains some kind of malicious virus Rarely have we had in our mobile more tools to combat malicious software like now.
Share files faster
One of the most attractive features of Files Go is being able to share files with other users of the application without the need for an Internet connection.You only have to have both applications installed on your mobile phone and press the third icon in the bottom bar of the screen. On this screen we can choose if you want to receive or send a file. Now, mobile-to-mobile connections last about 5 seconds on average, with file transfer speeds of up to 500 MB per second
Play videos and music from the same application
A very useful application for when you want to delete multimedia files and you don't know exactly what they contain. Now, from Files Go itself, we can find out if that video is so necessary that it continues to occupy a precious place on your phone.
As always, we have available the usual functions of the application. On the main screen we can analyze junk files to free up space on our phone.
