Needs permission to access before you can use this with a file shortcut app. You should state it explicitly at the start instead of returning BS messages like "cannot access file"

Very minimalistic. But that can be a good thing. I was hoping for more features and customizations, but this one is clean, ad-free, cost-free, and very small size, so no worries about storage space. Thank you very much kind person, for creating this app! <3
