Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The FileTransfer at 4.0 against Mobile's 2.3. Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (38 vs 4) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 11). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

The FileTransfer holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mobile has 38 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
