ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

InstallerCUBE holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Qfile Pro has 462 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Qfile Pro's written reviews are positive against 0% of InstallerCUBE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Qfile Pro ships an update every 6 weeks, InstallerCUBE monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
