Aer - Fork of Anemo

Aer is a private local (+secondary) storage utility application for android.

Do you worry about your private pictures or files appearing in other apps?

That's where Aer private storage comes in. Files in Aer storage won't appear in the other apps.

Note: Aer is in development 🏗️. Accidents happen. Please keeps backups 👷‍♀️ for your protection.

Instead of being a stand-alone file manager, Aer hooks into various components of Android,

making it feel like a native part of the operating system. Moreover, it provides ways for the user

to export contents from other apps and save them in Aer storage.
