TS AINT GOOD FOR NOTHING

You can’t see any of your files in the first place

Decent app

Love the app. Just wish it was available on Apple Watch’s both new and old ones.

Hard to buy

When I tried to buy the app in the App Store It did not let my even get in

Seriously fix this

So for some reason I download audio and it doesn't come through for some reason and I don't know what's going on

Just A Fine File App

This app is great, iCloud syncs to my laptop without a problem and stores all kinds of files, even gif.

PDF files

I’m having a problem with the pdf files it was working but now it’s not working at all I have to download other app just to views the files

5Star GARBAGE

Apple hires the dumbest morons

it is what it is

Its a files app. The end.

Issues

It’s having issues where it cannot save to folder and needs fixing

My grandmawas using this and said she would rather be a slave then use this app

Title pretty much explains it

Audio files have a problem

While playing audio files, I can't go to the next one without unlocking my phone, and when an audio file ends, it doesn't skip to the next. It would be helpful to have a 3 second break after long audio files before play the next. Also, for some reason, when i click on an mp4 file it asks wether i want to open imovie. what the heck?

Can’t view my files anymore, it says connect to cellular for ICloud, but I am

I haven’t been able to access my files because it says I need to connect to WiFi or cellular, but I am and it’s not working still. Useless app.

A lot of loopholes for an app to install spyware/malware

If you look at the option "Get info", any app can access your files without your permission. For example, Merrill Lynch. You would need to delete the app if you want that app to not access your files. If you specifically want to disable access to files via content and privacy settings, you're still able to access files through the iCloud page no problem. Just gotta go to iCloud > Saved to iCloud > Drive > iCloud Drive > View Large Files. There ya go! There are other methods too. This can all work when your files app is deleted off your phone, too. But yeah, not even a prompt to enter a passcode to access the files. You could try Settings > Safari > Downloads > and then select Other... Voila. A technical security risk. This is especially concerning since the settings app will every once in a while embed its application into my Files setting in the Privacy and Security section. If you disable it, it crashes the Settings app. Very weird. Anyways. TLDR; Loopholes with no passcode to get to your own files via the settings app when your Files app should be deleted from your device.

Needs immediate attention and improvement

The dates of access, methods of default sorting, etc are unintuitive and make it difficult to understand where files SHOULD be. Even simple tasks like cropping no longer work on this utility. Apple should sideline this app and find an alternative until it actually functions as required.

Recents

I have zero idea why recents shows up across devices versus just recents on the device in question, but it makes this app unusable for security reasons.

Bro…

i cant open some files I installed for a game APPLE FIX THIS

Can’t upload to onedrive

I’ve been trying to backup my files to the OneDrive I already pay for but because Apple wants me to pay them to use iCloud they make it harder if not impossible to do so. I smell class action lawsuit…

Great file management

Use it every day.
