Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: WristNotes at 5.0 against File Manager's 4.5. WristNotes also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). File Manager's advantage is review sentiment (84% vs 50%) and ratings volume (98 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. File Manager sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and WristNotes sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
WristNotes holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: File Manager has 98 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of File Manager's written reviews are positive against 50% of WristNotes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
File Manager ships an update every 4 months, WristNotes monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
