Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ShareDrop at none against File Transfer's 1. ShareDrop also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 9 months). File Transfer's advantage is ratings volume (164 vs 24). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
