SambaLite
A lightweight, modern, and open-source Android client for SMB/CIFS shares.
新版本 2.5.4
- Fixed: Guest login (issue #32) — connections without credentials now use true anonymous login instead of "Guest", so Samba servers without "map to guest = Bad User" no longer reject them.
- Fixed: Anonymous sessions are restricted to SMB2 dialects to avoid a crash in the SMB library (smbj#792).

SambaLite is a lightweight, modern, and open-source Android client for SMB/CIFS shares (Samba).
It is designed as a minimalist, reliable, and secure tool for accessing SMB shares on your local network – without ads, tracking, or unnecessary features.
SambaLite is a file client, not a system-level filesystem. It focuses on accessing and transferring files, not on providing a mounted network drive.
The app is intended for tech-savvy users who prefer a lean, transparent solution and value privacy and open source.
Main features:
• Manage connections: SMB server (hostname/IP), share/path, username, password, optional domain
• Multiple connections with custom names
• Connection testing with clear error messages
• Secure credential storage (Android Keystore)
• File browser with name, type, size, and modification date
• Pull-to-refresh
• Sorting (name, date, size)
• File operations: download, upload, delete, rename
• File properties
• Dark/Light mode (system default)
Compatibility:
• Supports modern SMB2/SMB3 servers
• SMB1 is not supported (deprecated and insecure)
Security & Privacy:
• No telemetry or third-party connections
• No unencrypted storage of sensitive data
• Credentials stored securely using the Android Keystore
Permissions:
SambaLite only requests the permissions required for its functionality:
• Network access (SMB communication)
• Access to user-selected storage locations (via Android system file picker)
• Foreground service and notifications (for reliable background transfers and progress display)
No data is collected or transmitted to third parties.

新版本 2.5.2
- Changed: Much faster folder sync on slow or high-latency connections (Issue #21). Remote file metadata for a directory is now fetched in a single listing instead of opening every file multiple times, drastically reducing SMB round-trips.
- Changed: Idle syncs (many files, few or no changes) that previously took minutes now complete in seconds.
- Changed: Reduced per-file overhead during uploads by avoiding redundant post-upload metadata reads.
