Usage Statistics - What You Have Sorted, Viewed and Freed

Open Settings, the General tab, and find Statistics collection in General interface settings. It is on after installation, with the note Collected on your device. Nothing is sent automatically. You can also turn it on or off on the first-run setup page - see Welcome and first setup.

Turning the switch off erases the detailed counters at once. Three facts are always kept, even with the switch off: how many times the app was launched, the date of the first launch and the version you first installed.

While collection is on, a Statistics row appears next to the switch. Tap it. The row disappears the moment you switch collection off, because there is nothing new to show.

At the top four cards show your all-time totals:

• Sorted (copied + moved) - how many files you copied or moved into place;
• Freed space - how much space your deletions gave back;
• Player time - how long you watched video and listened to audio in the app, together;
• Viewed - how many files you opened to look at.

If you open the screen right after a copy or a move, the new files are already counted - there is no moment where the card shows 0.

Under the cards the By type bar splits the files you worked with into Images, Video, Audio, Documents and Other, each with its share in percent and its count. The bar appears only once there is something to show.

Below the bar the details sit in sections you can fold and unfold with a tap on their title. A row that is still at zero is not shown at all, so each section lists only what you really did.

• Operations - Copied, Moved, Deleted with the space freed, Renamed, Archived, Extracted, Folders created, Duplicate scans and Duplicates removed, Operations undone, Scheduled runs and Files processed on schedule.
• Capture - Photos taken, Videos recorded, Voice notes and Screenshots made with the in-app camera, recorder and screen-edge gestures.
• Viewing - Images viewed, Videos watched and Audio played with the time spent, Documents opened with their pages, Slideshows started and Slides shown, Audio streams played and Video streams played, Frames exported and GIF frames saved, Added to favorites and Removed from favorites.
• Editing - Drawings, Notes written in the text editor, Image edits and Text recognized with text recognition.
• Sources - Sources connected: how many network and cloud folders you added, Streams added and Imported from playlists. Editions without network folders and cloud storage do not show this section.
• Usage - App launches, First launch, First installed version, and, while collection is on, Sessions and Active time.

Each row uses the full width of the screen, so long values such as the installed version read on one line.

At the bottom the screen reminds you: This data stays on your device. You send the summary to the author yourself, from your own email app. Two buttons build the same short text report - the totals, the app version, the edition, the phone model and the Android version, and nothing that identifies you:

• Send to author opens your email app with the author's address, the subject FastMediaSorter statistics and the report attached. Read it, and send it only if you want to. If no app can send it, the app says No app can send this - install a mail or sharing app and try again.
• Export opens the Android share menu with the same report as a text file, so you can save it to a folder or send it anywhere.
