Aerize File Explorer for WP Rolls out better Selection Mode & Pin to Start

Aerize was the first file explorer that was announced right after the Windows Phone 8.1 Update. Though an official file manager will be coming to Windows Phone, its amazing to see how developers are rolling out more features and customization making sure that users will be hooked to it.

That said, Aerize app has received some major update which overcomes some of the drawbacks during the launch. Note that not all features are free and if you like the app, its best to choose for in-APP purchase it. Here is the list:

Unobstructed Selection Mode:

While most of the apps block your view with a drop down menu, in here, you can just get to see all the menu items in the top along with the content below. This way you don’t don’t miss any of them. The default menu bar at the bottom, includes additional commands like copy, cut and search.

Control What you See:

Instead of loading all the information about a file or folder, you get a minimal view now. So for example, you get to see the count of number of files in any folder. So now using the compact view, you get to see more files but if you need details all the time, you can change it.

Thumbnail Previews:

Now you can see a preview of the file as it gets listed. This is typically useful for images, making it easier to select and delete them when not required or any multi-select operation.

Pinning file and folders:

You can now PIN any file to Start Screen. This is particularly useful for folders and PDF files. Select any of the file and choose PIN from top menu bar.
