# File Box vs MICHICON

The clearest difference is rating: File Box at 4.0 against MICHICON's 3.2. File Box also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). MICHICON's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. File Box sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MICHICON sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

File Box holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MICHICON has 41 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of File Box's written reviews are positive against 42% of MICHICON's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

File Box ships an update every 8 months, MICHICON every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
