What's new

v3.5.2Oct 4, 2026

✨ New Features
· Third-party apps can now use ZenFile's own file browser when picking files: choose ZenFile in "Send file" / "Add photo, video or file" in QQ, WeChat and others and you get the full file-browser UI (list / grid, thumbnails, archive-format icons, selection state) with results returned automatically, starting in internal storage by default · Archive support for .7z / .rar: both extraction and in-app browsing work (pure-Dart decoders, no extra components), including password-protected archives (Chinese passwords supported) · Installation packages (.apk / .xapk / .apks / .apkm / .aab) in the file browser and category pages now show an "Installed / Not installed" badge under the icon, no need to open each one
🎨 UI & Interaction
· ZenFile's own file picker now looks exactly like the file browser (same list / grid entries, thumbnails, file-type icons and selection highlight) and gains a list / grid view toggle · In the system file-picker drawer, ZenFile once again appears as both a "ZenFile" app entry and a "ZenFile Storage" root; the root entry hint is now a guidance line to reduce mistaps
🐛 Bug Fixes
· Fixed the picker showing an empty folder when launched from QQ and other third-party apps: the start directory now falls back through requested path, root path and internal storage, so no more blank pages (forum feedback) · Fixed the picker landing on the normal home screen (with no way to pick a file) when ZenFile was still alive in the background (state is now re-checked on resume with the cached engine) · Fixed ZenFile not appearing as a candidate in the "Open document" flow (the OPEN_DOCUMENT filter was missing CATEGORY_OPENABLE) · Fixed the picker UI not refreshing when ZenFile was already in the background and got launched again (added onNewIntent handling) · Fixed SMB remote directories going out of sync after a failed load (breadcrumb at the target share while the list still showed the parent) with no error shown: failures now roll back the path and surface the real error (forum feedback) · Fixed some SMB shares missing from the share list: ZenFile no longer logs in silently as anonymous (guest); a username is now required unless "Anonymous login" is checked (forum feedback) · Fixed incomplete remote video thumbnails and playback stutter: a token-bucket deadlock that stalled the thumbnail queue, a wider video header probe (2MB to 8MB), a higher full-download fallback cap (100MB to 300MB), and thumbnails are paused during playback to free up bandwidth (forum feedback) · Fixed ZIP archives with a Chinese password failing to extract: password candidates are now validated by CRC32 instead of wrongly accepting the first candidate
