Fluffy is a free, open-source file manager for Android from MLM Games, now at version 4.6.0 and last updated on October 22, 2026. It runs on phones, tablets and Android TV, weighs 7.4 MB and needs Android 7.0 or newer. It shows no ads and has no trackers.
Who the TV-friendly layout is for
Fluffy suits people who want a small file manager that also works with a TV remote. The interface supports DPAD focus and uses large targets, so moving through folders does not depend on a touchscreen.
It also fits anyone who handles archives often and wants that built into the file browser. The app works without a network connection, which matters on a TV box that may never be signed in to anything.
Archives, SAF folders and the Task Center
You can browse internal storage or pick any folder through the Storage Access Framework. Archives can be opened like folders, or you can extract only the items you select.
For creating and extracting, Fluffy lists ZIP, 7z, TAR, TGZ, TBZ2, TXZ and APK/JAR. Encrypted archives are covered for ZIP with AES and for 7z.
Long jobs run in the background with progress shown, and a Task Center collects them in one place.
Limits of a GPL-3.0 utility
The app is free, and the licence is GPL-3.0-or-later, with source code on the developer's GitHub page. It has no cloud sync, so it is not a replacement for Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.
