Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Image File Converter at Free against Image's $1.99. Image File Converter also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 40%) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). Image's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 20 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Image holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Image File Converter has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Image File Converter's written reviews are positive against 40% of Image's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Image File Converter ships an update every 20 months, Image monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
