Open Explorer Beta crashes and isn't responding after a minute of loading video files
This bug I found is for **Open Explorer Beta**, an Android File Manager application.

This is the very first time that there is an application installed in my phone that crashes and isn't responding. Well, since this application is still in Beta mode, I can clearly understand why I encounter this kind of bug during my testing of the application. Hoping to reach the developer via this article about this important matter to be fix in the application.

### Bug found details
It happened that I ended up downloading this open-source application from Play Store as I am looking for good and easy to use File Manager. The good thing also about this application is that it is open-source and I wanted to become a beta tester for the mentioned app since it was still in beta mode.

After opening this application for the first time, I try to navigate in the category for all video files. Since, I do have more than a hundred video files stored in my phone, it takes time to load all the video files I have.

To provide all necessary details, I do also include the time sequence in my all screenshot below that I captured during testing.

**At 1:36 PM, the application started to load the all video files stored in my Android Smartphone. The loading sequence was sorted by name of the video files.**

I understand the fact that I have to wait more minute for the application to finish loading my all video files. So, I did continue waiting.

**At 1:38 PM, the application just be able to load only one thumbnail picture for the the first video in the sort.**

To think with, the application just be able to completely load only one files in 2 minutes.

**At 1:39 PM, the application crashes and isn't responding anymore.**

What I did after the application crashes is close the application and open it again.

**From 1:39 PM - 1:40 PM, the time I open the app again but the mentioned application hung again and won't load the app.**

Here's the video that after the application crashed, I can't load the app anymore.

### My Smartphone details where I used to found this bug
**Phone Brand**: Vivo
**Model:** V5
**RAM:** 4GB
**OS:** Android 6.0.1

### Bug conclusion
The application will tend to crashed if there are so much media files to load and after crashes, the application isn't responding anymore. And if you close the app and open it again, the app will hung.

That's all. I hope this article will reach to the developer.

Hello sir @thegoldenphoenix, I attached a video to this comment as you ask. Please see the video first sir. I'm afraid I can't replicate the bug anymore because after the application crashes, I can't open it anymore sir. See the video below.

https://youtu.be/Dw2qA2heDWc

### Hoping for your approval sir so that this problem will reach to the developer.

And one also, I already added this video to the article.
