Apps that work well with RSAF

Nikhil Badyal edited this page Jun 22, 2025 · 2 revisions
  • The Material Files file manager (GitHub|F-Droid|Play) lets you add RSAF remotes in the sidebar with Add storage → External storage
  • DocumentsUI file manager aka com.android.documentsui aka Files lists SAF storage in the sidebar. This is actually the built-in Android file manager, you just need an "app" to add a shortcut, so you can start it from your phone's launcher. (Sadly, the similar "Files" app by Google does not make SAF storage easily accessible.)
    • Files (Play) is an app that creates this shortcut.
    • Documentsui-shortcut aka Files (GitHub) is another one, available as open source
  • The Just Player video player (GitHub|F-Droid|Play) lets you open videos via SAF.
  • The Symphony music player (GitHub|F-Droid|Play) can play from SAF storage, just add a media folder in Settings → Groove → Media folders
  • The Musicolet Music Player (Play) can play from SAF storage, just add a media folder in Settings → Songs library and tags → Folder to scan → ADD FOLDER → Internal Storage
