“The ASTRO File Manager helps you get the most out of
your Android-powered phone. The Android operating system is
designed to be very open and flexible, giving its users the chance
to do more things on their phone than ever before. ASTRO helps your
phone reach its full potential by giving you the tools to manage
your phone.

“I have been using Android-powered mobile phones for a while and
one of the first things I do when purchasing a new phone is
download some needed apps from the android market. One of the most
vital apps, in my opinion, is a good file manager. I tested the
various file managers and found ASTRO to be the best.

“Some of the things you can do with the ASTRO File Manager:

“Manage files, including compressed files like zip and tar
Backup applications
Manager running applications
Send files as attachments
View thumbnails and images
Browse and create compressed files like Zip and Tar”
