CLUSTER DOCUMENTS-FILE-MANAGER · 30 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2015-04-18

Mobile file manager apps

This cluster comprises mobile file manager apps focused on organizing, previewing, searching, and playing photos, videos, documents, and other files on a device, often with cloud storage integration and privacy features. Entries have appeared steadily from 2010 to 2026, with a consistent tempo rather than a distinctive shape, as 30+ dated entries are spread across that period. The traction leader is 'filet' with 4 stars, while other members show minimal activity signals.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
