Arcile

What's New Since v1.9.0 Root, Shizuku, and Normal Android access Choose Automatic, Root, Shizuku, or Normal Android access during onboarding or later in Settings, with live readiness, identity, reconnect, permission, and fallback controls. Browse, search, inspect, rename, copy, move, delete, shred, archive, analyze, clean, preview, edit, open, and share files while preserving their selected storage-provider identity. Transfer files safely between access providers with staged publication, conflict handling, cancellation cleanup, partial-failure reporting, and interruption recovery. Keep system and virtual filesystems read-only, with a separate Root-only safety opt-in for protected app-data writes. Preserve the active folder and interface state when access disappears, then recover through an explicit reconnect or Normal-access action. Protected media, archives, Trash, and storage tools Preview images, videos, audio, PDFs, APK details, thumbnails, and metadata through expiring protected content grants without exposing storage paths. Keep gallery video order and thumbnail position intact, retain the cached thumbnail until the next video renders, and keep titles clear of display cutouts. Continue ordinary video playback only when Arcile moves to the background, with media notification controls and a Close player action; protected playback still closes on backgrounding. Pinch to zoom and pan video, scrub quickly or precisely in either direction without losing the controls, tap the duration to switch between total and remaining time, and see the active fit, zoom, or fill mode. Keep brightness, volume, and metadata gestures clear of Android navigation edges, and restart the control timeout after every interaction. Get a more useful image-decoding error when an image is damaged, unsupported, or temporarily inaccessible. Create, browse, and extract supported archives in protected locations while retaining backend identity through foreground work and restarts. Move supported protected files to same-volume Trash, keep disconnected items visible, and restore only after the original provider is ready. Run explicit folder-scoped usage maps and cleaner scans with bounded traversal, verified duplicate detection, partial-result warnings, and provider-safe cleanup. Documentation, community, and platform maintenance Replaced the README's developer sections with a comprehensive user-facing feature guide and moved build, structure, stack, signing, testing, and release details to DEVELOPMENT.md. Added the Discord community link and expanded credits across the README, website, and in-app license screen. Standardized Root actions on the Android icon, named primary storage “Internal Storage,” and explained the difference between OnlyFiles quick and full health checks. Updated compatible Android, Kotlin, Compose, Hilt, KSP, Media3, security, and test dependencies while keeping Gradle 9.5.0, Coil 2, and stable MaterialKolor 4.
