Please Recommend An Alternative To Solid Explorer - eviltoast

I use Solid Explorer a lot. I use it mostly to transfer files from my phone to my Samba network storage. However, in the past couple days, this has randomly stopped working for Solid Explorer and I can no longer connect to my NAS as a guest. I’ve confirmed that it’s a Solid Explorer problem by connecting with Material Files and so I tried to contact NeatBytes and got no response, so now I’m looking for an alternative.

You might be thinking, if Material Files works, why not use that? It’s single pane. I really need a dual pane user experience.

The other thing I would really like is a Material You looking/feeling user experience. One of my issues with Solid Explorer is that it feels a bit dated.

With all that in mind, can you recommend something please?

    You can open a second or third instance of material files via the three dots menu. You then have the app multiple times open and can copy/cut and paste between them.

    Its not quite two panes but maybe better on a small screen. Its also a feature that’s easy to miss.
