Now you know all the reasons why this app is a must-have, and its features have you ready to download it. Now, here’s the quick and easy way to download it on your Android. Follow these simple steps, and you’re fine to continue! Dowloading on Android is easier than PC and Meta Quest.
Step-by-Step Guide to Download and Install Cx File Explorer APK
First off, go to the download page and you’ll clearly see a download button over there.
As soon as you click the download button, you may see the following pop-up:
Not everyone will see this, but if it does appear on your phone, don’t freak out. It won’t hurt your device at all; just click “OK.” Otherwise, it’ll automatically begin downloading.
Click “Open” once the download is finished.
Next, click on “Install.” Right after that, if you see any error like “App not installed” or something like that, go through this troubleshooting guide to fix it.
Once the installation process is done, click “Done” to close the window or “Open” to get started with using it.
If you open it, Cx File Explorer will greet you with the following page, then click “Next” (or click privacy policy if you wish to).
Then you’ll be prompted to give Cx File Explorer access to your device’s data. It’ll automatically take you to the settings where you need to toggle on “Allow access to manage all files.”
And you’re done finishing the whole process! Manage, Organize, Enjoy!
Why Download the APK Instead of Using Google Play?
It’s pretty helpful if you download the APK because if you ever need to share it with your friends later, you can do so by sending them on their WhatsApp or over Bluetooth. And yes, you don’t even need a Google account to download the APK file, but in the Google Play case, you do.
Another reason is that, if you want to download it on your Meta Quest 2/3, APK is the only way since these devices don’t have Google Play. Sometimes, the latest version might not run on your device, so then, you can use any older version instead, and that’s only available through APKs.
Is installing Cx File Explorer APK Safe?
It’s totally safe; don’t worry about it, cause I’m providing the Original APK file of Cx File Explorer, not the modified version. Modded versions can be risky since they’re made by third-party devs, but this one? It’s 100% legit, straight-up original, just converted to APK with no code changes.
So you can trust it’s all safe. It only asks for storage permissions, not for your personal info. It’s not out to steal anything from your phone—if it was, Google Play would’ve booted it ages ago. So yeah, it’s safe and totally legal!
Requirements Before Installing the APK
Before you try to download it on your phone, you must know that your device runs Android version 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher. Do the following settings too:
Go to Settings > Security (or Privacy).
Turn on the “Allow apps from unofficial sources” setting in your web browser or file manager you’re using.
- On Android 8.0+, go to:
Settings > Apps > Special access > Install unknown apps.
Though this APK doesn’t take up much space, just 16/17 MB, you should still have 50-100MB free to have Cx File Explorer running smoothly. Internet connection is also required, but only if you’re hosting your files on cloud storage and for in-app updates; for anything else, you don’t need an internet connection. So if your device nods yes to these requiremnts, download and get started with using it.
