Google released a new app called Android Samba Client on the Play Store earlier this month, allowing you to mount SMB file shares to the Downloads or Files app on your Android device. Now, that app has been updated to support SMBv2 and SMBv3 protocols, crucially expanding the app’s previous limitation of only SMBv1.
