Useful app, but sometimes buggy. For example whilst you are typing somewhere in the middle of the file, the screen moves to the end of the file, this happens periodically in the same session.

Allows me to browse file structure and change where I'm looking at and saving my files. No ads as of yet which is a huge Plus!
