iOS App Store seems to have about nine hundred ‘file managers’ all of which are anything but and demand ridiculous subscription costs.

Is there a decent file manager for iOS that actually will do file management things like select multiple file & rename etc that isn’t a scammy subscription/Ad ridden mess?

*Yes, I’m aware Files app is provided by Apple, but it’s extremely basic.

      FileBrowser Pro is really great. One-time purchase, has about any feature you could need and they’re constantly adding new features too. Totally worth it.

      Thank you very much for your suggestion. This looks like a more reasonably priced solution. After re-reading the description I note the developers say that it EXTENDS the iOS Files app, in other words I can access files already present ‘on your phone’.

        You can access a special filebrowser folder via the files app… there are different versions of the app available via App Store, so you can try before you by I guess

          Yes, I tested the ‘Go’ version which allows 3 day trial before levying a subscription.

          Based on that I purchased the ‘Pro’ version as it meets my needs well and I hate farking subscriptions lol
