Reviews of Filer

Leave a Review Filer
  • After years of use it stopped working

    Now I can’t access my saved files.
  • Ok when it works

    Better than nothing.

    When it did work, audio would stop if you opened a different app.

    Now it crashes each time I open it- even after reinstalling.
  • Mostly Pointless and Incompatible

    Filer used to be my favorite “missing” app from Apple on iOS giving my iPad 1 the much needed presence of a file system. The ability to download and transfer apps was fantastic and the ability to save downloaded data without a computer was incredibly useful.

    However since 2018, this app is mostly outdated and replaced by other programs like Safari and Apple’s own Files App. Filer is incompatible with Files and can’t access or view anything from the Files app, meaning a file downloaded on Filer won’t be able to be opened anywhere else on the iPhone. This is terribly outdated.
