A flutter plugin to open the default file manager app.

Support

Android iOS
Support SDK 20+ iOS 12+

How it works?

Android

The Android app can open either Recent folder or Download folder. The plugin will show the available file manager apps in the bottom popup and you can select one app to open. That app will open with the given folder in selected app.

iOS

The iOS app can open app's document folder and it's sub directory if provided. Plugin will open the Files app in iOS. You need to add the following code snippet in Info.plist to view your app's document folder inside On My iPhone. Also, you need to save at least one file to view your app's folder.

<key>UISupportsDocumentBrowser</key>  
<true/>

Usage

It's a very simple to use. Just call the below method and add config if required.

import 'package:open_file_manager/open_file_manager.dart'

openFileManager(
   androidConfig: AndroidConfig(
       folderType: FolderType.recent,
   ),
   iosConfig: IosConfig(
       // Path is case-sensitive here.
       subFolderPath: 'Pictures/Screenshots',
   ),
);
  • If androidConfig doesn't provided, Android app will open Download folder by default.
  • If iosConfig doesn't provided, iOS app will open app's document folder by default.
