# File Manager vs Zero Duplicates

The clearest difference is ads: Zero Duplicates at none against File Manager's shown. Zero Duplicates also leads on ratings volume (52 vs 2). File Manager's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. File Manager sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Zero Duplicates sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

File Manager holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zero Duplicates has 52 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
