    Homescreen folder shortcuts

    Is there any way to create a shortcut to one of the folders in ES file explorer on one of the homescreens? Specifically, when I go into file explorer, there is a folder named "Messaging" which has all the pics I've saved from text messages. I'd like to create a shortcut to that on one of my homescreens so I can view those pics easily. In other words, without tapping "Apps", scrolling to "ES File Explorer", tapping that, scrolling to "Messaging" and tapping that.

    Thanks much

    Long press the folder you want, then press shortcut.

    Welcome to DroidForums TBoneHuffman & jakedogg!

    You can try what jakedogg suggested to put the es file explorer shortcut on your home screen. When you open es file explorer, you can long press on the exact file you want quick access to and choose bookmark. Then everytime you open es file explorer, all you have to do is choose the favorites tab and that folder will be there.

    I haven't discovered a quick one click access way to get to that particular folder yet, but that would give you a quick three - click access.
