Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iFiles at 4.7 against File Converter's 3.8. iFiles also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (3.2K vs 479). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. File Converter sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 7 days and iFiles sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iFiles holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iFiles has 3.2K ratings behind it against 479, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of File Converter's written reviews are positive against 45% of iFiles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

File Converter ships an update every 3 months, iFiles every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
