1: use circle to go back in file manager. This will greatly improve the user experience when navigating. Circle currently is just doing the same thing as triangle.

2: some kind of menu/pop up displaying all available buttons shortcuts. Example: start to view file manager help, select to view hex editor help, down to change sorting order of games, etc.

3: “< >” displayed next to some options in the file manager. I’ve been using IRISMAN for a number of years now, and only recently discovered that some of the options can be scrolled left/right — I can’t be alone.

4: exFAT manager font change. I’m not sure what is is about the current font, but it’s pretty hard to read.

  1. You can go back to the parent folder pressing SELECT+TRIANGLE. If you use it over .. it goes to root folder.
  2. If you press START there is a help popup window that shows the shortcuts. In the hex editor the help button is SELECT due START is used to show the menu.
  3. The left/right menu options are "easter eggs" to add more fun to the UX 😄 To be honest I was lazy to add these labels.
  4. exFAT Manager was implemented with larger fonts recently.

I did not know about number 1 as it’s not mentioned in the help (start) text. After testing now, I have a couple of points to make: 1. Pressing select + start on ‘..’ goes to the root folder instead of previous. 2. Pressing select + start in general doesn’t remember the previous cursor positions, unlike using the ‘..’ option. I’m sure both of these are probably intentional, but it’s worth mentioning just in case.

2: I discovered this a while ago by accident. I actually meant some kind of indicator telling the user to press select/start to see the controls. Still, not a big deal.

3: That’s understandable :P

4: I noticed that. Thank you for the change :)
