Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PDF File Convert at 4.4 against File Converter's 3.8. PDF File Convert also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). File Converter's advantage is ratings volume (479 vs 5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
