Description

This App "Find in Files" (FGrep) is an extra Add-On for the App DiffTool (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.difftool).
By using the code of this APP, Diff Tool is able to find documents and text files on your device containing the pieces of text you are looking for.

In contrast to other GREP, aGREP and eGREP APPs, this APP additionally supports document files like Word ®*, Excel ®*, PowerPoint ®* and other office products.

The following plain text files are supported:
ASCII, ANSI, ISO-8859-1, Latin1, CP1252,
UNICODE (UTF-8/16/32 little and big endian).
The following documents are supported:
DOC, XLS, PPT, RTF(latin1 only),
DOCX, XLSX, PPTX,
ODT, ODS, ODP.
And the text search will also work on many different binary file formats too, as long these files are not crypted or compressed.

After you have installed that App, run DiffTool and select the menu "extras / find in files" (see the second screenshot picture too).

FGrep can not find text on pictures.

The tool does contain a simple text viewer only, which displays the unformatted text of each file found, without any pictures. To display the real content of documents, please install DiffDroid too.

To run this Add-On, DiffTool version 1.83 or later is needs to be installed (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.difftool).

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★Probably the only one available in the Play Store right now that works with sdcards. You might want to lower the scroll acceleration.
3 ★Since no longer needed (per Difftool changelog), mark as deprecated?
