Unable to rename files

Compared to apple which you can rename a file and also make a new folder, you cannot do that to Android? Am I missing something?

Hi DARWIN5FE8,

 

Hope you are doing well.

Thank you for posting your query here. Could you help me with few details to understand your issue better?

  1. OS version and application version?
  2. Make and model of your device?

 

To rename a file:

  • From any file list, including Home, Files, and a list of search results:

    1. Tap three dots...

    2. Tap A 

    3. Enter a name.

    4. Tap Rename.

The directions are the same for iOS as they are for Android (the original question). Here is the link:

Can you show a screenshot of what you are seeing, including the name you are trying to use? Possibly you have an illegal character and need to change the name slightly.
