On Android Chrome Drag&Drop or select itmes is not working or maybe not implemented yet?

Only found on reddit another user that had this problem to.

Support for mobile could see a lot of improvement indeed. That's one of the big project that would need to be tackled if we're to go 1.0 but getting it right is a lot of work. One of the other part I've started to work on is tagging which will take some time to complete. If someone want to tackle that mobile usability part, please use this thread as a discussion forum so we can see how it could be made better before making some PR.

I'm having the same request, but sadly neither time nor knowledge to code something myself. So I'd like to offer a few ideas how selecting and downloading could be improved.

A very quick workaround would be an additional button "Download All" next to "New File" and "New Folder". This would mobile give mobile (and desktop - dragging to select is not quite intuitive in a browser) users a way to quickly download a whole folder.

Going forward, adding a select checkbox to the "share","edit","delete" icons for desktop and reacting to a long press to select for mobile would be what I would intuitively look for in a web file manager.

I'd love to hear what others would consider the "default" behavior.
