# App Icon vs Visual File Editor

The clearest difference is rating: Visual File Editor at 4.5 against App Icon's 4.0. Visual File Editor also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (26 vs 4). App Icon's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Visual File Editor sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. App Icon asks for nothing beyond the download.

Visual File Editor holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Visual File Editor has 26 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of App Icon's written reviews are positive against 83% of Visual File Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

App Icon ships an update every 2 months, Visual File Editor every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
