I store all my books on my phone, not on a card, it just makes things easier for me.

Thanks for that. I'm getting there.

With ES File Explorer, I find especially helpful:

• the app's Homepage, where one can find and manage files the app classifies as "images", "music", "movies", "documents", and "app"
• the app's search function
• the ability to move files around (except when the Android OS prohibits desired moves, which moves I then can often make by connecting my device to my computer)

FYI, I like to store all of my sideloaded documents and books in Calibre Companion. I can then read via compatible apps, e.g., Moon+ Reader Pro.

Agin, many thanks. Lot of info here to assimilate.
