Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FileXip at 77% against Unicode+'s 0%. FileXip also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 11 days) and device support (3 vs 1). Unicode+'s advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.7). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Unicode+ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and FileXip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Unicode+ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Unicode+'s written reviews are positive against 77% of FileXip's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Unicode+ ships an update every 11 days, FileXip every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
