Sometimes while browsing files on our mobile we had to download third party apps especially when the factory installed browser does not convince us. But did you know that you can use Chrome as a file explorer in Android ?.
Google browser allows you to browse files on your phone in a mobile way that we will not have to install third-party applications. It’s very basic, but it’s quite curious and best of all is that you only have to use a command to activate this option.
Chrome is also a file explorer
To activate this function, we will not even need to use the “flags” function. You just have to enter the command which we will now detail. You have to open Chrome and in the address bar write File: /// sdcard /.
With this order we are going to make Chrome work as a file explorer. We will see how a warning appears on the screen to allow Chrome to access system files and thus see what is the content of the internal memory of our smartphone.
With this system we can view all types of files, including multimedia content in the form of videos, images or playing sounds, and all without leaving Chrome and with very PC-like statics.
We can enter all the folders and files that we have on the mobile, although is very basic and we can only see them, you will not be able to pick up or move content.
