Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Filebar at 350 against TBox's 4. Filebar also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 57%). TBox's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. TBox sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Filebar sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TBox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Filebar has 350 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of TBox's written reviews are positive against 67% of Filebar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TBox ships an update every 3 weeks, Filebar every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
