Feature description

Some kind of cancel method to stop a copy/move operation.

Why do you want this feature?

Having a way to cancel huge file copy move operations might be useful. Having made the mistake mentioned in #137 the only way I could think of stopping moving 2000+ images was to shut down the phone.

This is related to #137 and perhaps if/once #137 gets implemented this feature might be a bit redundant? or maybe it would still be useful for people to change their minds about a move operation?

Additional information

Perhaps having some kind of filter where the option only appeared if the number of files being moved was greater than a certain threshold: 50, 100 or 200 images? and/or an entire folder?
