If you use an Android phone and play games or use apps on your phone then you must be feeling the need of a file manager or you might be using one. File Manager allows you to cut, copy, paste, move files or folders on your phone without the need of personal computer. The file manager is a replacement of your pc in this case. It saves you a lot of time and headache.

There are many file managers available in the market but I would personally recommend Astro File Manager.
