# File Managers vs iUSB

The clearest difference is rating: File Managers at 4.4 against iUSB's 2.8. File Managers also leads on ratings volume (323 vs 24). iUSB's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. File Managers sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. iUSB asks for nothing beyond the download.

File Managers holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: File Managers has 323 ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of File Managers's written reviews are positive against 25% of iUSB's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

File Managers ships an update every 11 days, iUSB every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
