Maybe in my old age, I have mellowed out and realized, like everyone else, I can be a dummy at times. And so I am a hell of a lot more patient with users who don’t know everything (or much of anything). I also have become more interested in human factors (mostly as a spectator…or victim).
Looking at this I am actually kind of curious what their specific workflows are. While “cut” might do the trick if I had to cut and paste files to a bunch of different directories I would want to bash my head in. (Of course I would be using Linux, btw, and would do it at the shell prompt lol) But seriously, there is a better way to reorganize many files to many directories in a UI than cut/paste.
When I was 25, and an insufferably arrogant IT nerd, I would’ve downvoted you and mocked this hapless individual; I hang my head in shame thinking about who I used to be. :( I’ve come a long way. I’m not as arrogant… I’m just insufferable! \o/
I’m sitting here like, in my old age I’ve seen things these script kiddies are apparently unaware exist. They will lie to your face and insist its not lying, so long as they can’t be bothered to learn any differently.
All these idiots insisted the requested feature is in the app, so I tried it and found … MaterialFiles doesn’t have Move-to/Copy-to. It’s not a feature that even makes all that much sense(if any) for a mobile app, but damn, they should just say that instead of insisting its a feature their app already has.
I have like eight different file-browsers on my phone, as each has one or more features the others won’t, or can’t impliment. ES File whatever - the only one that can set a file as a ring-tone. X-plore File-Manager - let’s me sort media files based on length, not just age, name or file-size … and also happens to be the only mobile file-browser I’ve seen with the feature requested in the OP.
For my day-to-day, I use fx File Browser, and I couldn’t even tell you why. I’m of an age where I stick to what I’m used to until I’m forced into an alternative, and even then that one feature usually doesn’t make for a new daily driver. “Dev’s” like are crowding this thread are doing their best to make sure it stays that way. I’m ready to jump ship to a Linux phone because there are fewer (shit)devs writing apps for them.
