File Manager Pro App for Negative User Reviews
✓ WorstIts not work on iphone X when try to sign in dropbox not let me sign in its worthless for iphone X update again pls.Version: 3.1
✓ Glad update for X. No faceid thoughI’ve used this for years and I’m accustomed to it instead of moving large library to new apps. But before this update, Face ID worked. Now that the interface is updated and all text can be read, Face ID isn’t there. Please update. Thanks. I’ll throw 5 stars then..Version: 3
✓ User help 5 years old, grossly incomplete, does not do everything advertisedI bought this to do ONE task, batch renaming. That is mentioned nowhere. I checked the website, which has a link to a third-party *five-year-old* tutorial. Needless to say, it does not work the same, and neither the developer’s website nor the tutorial mention batch renaming. The “powerful” tools it includes are now built in to OneDrive, iOS 11, iCloud, etc. I don’t need to use an app to move images from iCloud to OneDrive — it is quite a bit simpler to do it from OneDrive itself. It is not the loss of $4.99 that bothers me, but the waste of my time and the frustration of dealing with a product that the developers have not bothered with in years, coasting on reviews from when iCloud and OneDrive were less user-friendly..Version: 2.9
✓ I loved until…I got a new iPad Air. It will not retrieve anything from my Dropbox but it says it’s connected to Dropbox. It won’t let me add a new Dropbox connection or delete the existing one. I’ve tried uninstalling, rebooting my iPad and reinstalling multiple times with the same issue. I can’t find any way to contact support. I used to use this constantly but it’s now useless..Version: 3.1
✓ A Big DisappointmentThis is probably the most disappointing app that I have bought. The description paints it as being the iPad equivalent to Windows Explorer or the Macintosh Finder. I wanted something that would allow me to locate the large files on my iPad (as one could do using Explorer or the Finder) but this thing doesn't even come close. It does allow you to manage external storages (like DropBox and Google Drive) but I have other apps that do that for a lot less than this turkey cost me. I think that the references to Windows Explorer and Macintosh Finder are, at the very least, misrepresentation. Definitely not recommended..Version: 2.2
✓ File issue?I have the same issue as the guy who says “Don’t waste your money”! You have to download your file, before you can transfer and organize it in the file manager! Then you have to delete the original file..Version: 3.1
✓ UpdateThis was a great app , user friendly and could use a password to protect ur data Looks like the developers have forgotten about the app , this app need serious update . Update please 🙏🙏.Version: 3.1
✓ Not nearly as good or effective as Windows explorer.Not that I can have Explorer on my iPad, but it does provide a model of functionality. File Manager lacks some desirable functions. You can’t set attributes such as read only or hidden. You can’t access all the local files that the iPad’s native Files can access. You can’t view all the directories on your device..Version: 3.1
✓ Don’t buy.Does nothing to assist me in transferring docs in a simple and easy manner. I consider it a complete waste of money..Version: 3.1
✓ Does not work with google driveOnly paid for this so I could upload my files from google drive, but Google drive does not let you sign in through this app.Version: 3.1
✓ Not seeing some filesUnfortunately it doesn’t like google files or video files. Videos will close the program and google will not allow the app for security reasons..Version: 3.1
✓ OneDriveKeep trying to connect to OneDrive without success. App seems to connect but cannot see files. Tried to contact developer but no response. Works great with other drives such as Dropbox.Version: 3.1
✓ Only Easy to useNot bad but easy to use only fewer features.Version: 2.9
✓ Wrong file namesI downloaded multiple mp3 and videos. The file names did not correspond to the file but were one file out of sync. For example, the 8th file in the list would have the name corresponding to the 9th file. Renaming the files did not fix the problem..Version: 3
✓ Urgent, How to get Support. Gone from Home screenIt worked well for a good while. But app icon (and the folder it was in) is gone from iPad screens. I can open it from App Store. How to put it back on screens? There is no support tab in web site. If this deficiency solved deserves 4 star or more..Version: 3.1
✓ Don’t waste your moneyI downloaded this app because Apple, for some reason, doesn’t want users to organize their files the way that they would like to. I was so frustrated that I am unable to create my own folder in the “Files” app that I sought out a third party option. I typically rely on One Drive, but when I need to work offline, I want to be able to have my files organized in a logical way. This app organizes well, however, in order to work on a document, it opens it as read only first, then I have to save a copy elsewhere (you can’t save a copy to File Manager Pro), then you have to copy it back to File Manager Pro and then delete the original. I don’t understand why I can’t just open a file, work on it, and then save it like I would on a computer. It was a waste of $5. I am probably just going to buy a Windows Surface again. I gave Apple a shot. An iPad is a glorified video and book reading machine. I shouldn’t even have to download and pay for a third party app to do a very basic function like organize files..Version: 3.1
✓ RubbishIt does nothing. Very weird, it can access my google drive files, but no icloud files show up. Need my money back.Version: 2.9
✓ Muddled interface and opening file in VLC from File Manager just quits itDoes not do what is supposed to do for files transferred onto iPad..Version: 3.1
✓ Problems with PDF’sI am a project manager and I purchased this app to coordinate all the documents associated with my jobs. The app seems great but it can not handle the pdf building plans I need to open. It tries to open the file but then just displays the file information. Other apps handle these files just fine. Very disappointed I wasted my money..Version: 3.1
✓ UselessFine for the local files, but crashes constantly when looking at SMB shares on the network..Version: 3.1
✓ No connectionFor some reason it wont connect to one drive even though I have added one drive as a source.Version: 3.1
✓ Used to be greatI have been using this app for a long time, only to find it no longer works correctly with mp3 files. Previously it worked well but now plays incorrect files. Have emailed developer but no reply as yet. I am close to deleting!.Version: 3
✓ CrapCan’t use with google drive so for me it’s a waste of money fix this please.Version: 3.1
✓ DisasterLost all files after updating to iOS 13.Version: 3.1
✓ File name case problemsUsed for a while on my iPads and is great for organising portable files between systems. But why has it suddenly decided to reduce file names to lowercase, ignoring mixed case format of originals? It won’t permit a rename using uppercase character, however local files are unaffected. Needs looking into..Version: 2.9
✓ I threw $5 awayNot user friendly! Would not read my pdf files. My current files program reads them, but not this upgraded pro version. Plus, does not see files already on your device, unless you move them to the new program location and not an easy process. The worse thing is, by granting permission to see “one drive”, google drive etc etc etc , you are told that you are giving them and the websites permission to use your data for a list of reasons. Sounds like a data breach to me. Isn’t anything private anymore. All these programs and companies want to use your photos and files. I’m not ok with that. I should have believed the other reviewers. I was warned..Version: 3.1
✓ Needs updatingGood, but increasingly glitchy with every ios release.Version: 3.1
✓ Too bad there are no zero stars ratingI have never been able to find a downloaded file in this app. When I search by name they don’t show up. They might as will not be on my phone.It may work for other people, but for me it is absolutely completely worthless. What a waste of money..Version: 3.1
✓ Can't open files of other appsBe careful if you think that this app will let you browse files of other apps in the iPhone's or iPad's "Apps" folder. It wont. It says "opens docs from other apps" but that only relates to a sharing feature, not that you can open a folder of documents that belong to other apps, like iTunes allows you to..Version: 2.9
✓ File ManagerI don’t know if these are called Editing Tools at the bottom of Edit screen, such as Rename, Copy/Move, Delete, but when I wanted to use them, I have to tap hard and a few times before it gets activated or it gets to work. To look for some of these tools, I have to slide them to the left and by doing so, It requires a few attempts and pressing tip of finger harder on the the bar..Version: 3.1
✓ No longer works with latest iOS and iPadOSIt’s always been a temperamental app, but now doesn’t open files, when opening files, the application just crashes..Version: 3.1
✓ No idea how to make this app work… Where is the decoder ring to app?Tutorial that comes with it is useless. Developers website is equally useless. This app doesn’t recognize any of the folders / files I have in iCloud or One Drive - it does, however recognize the tutorial file which to be repetitive is useless. I have had better success organizing files and folders in the files app that came with iPad. The one star I gave you is overly generous..Version: 3.1
✓ Waste of moneyWanted to name my photos but the app does not let me!!!.Version: 3.1
✓ Transfer filesDoes not transfer all files.Version: 3.1
✓ Absolute waste of money and dangerous!It destabilized my iPhone 13 Pro Max (IOS 16.3.1) and had to remove it - after which the phone went back to normal operation!.Version: 3.1
✓ File manager proThought this app was brilliant when I purchased the pro version However after a while every time I want to play a video the file manager just crashes. I’ve tried everything inc re installing app but still the same. I have contact the developer a few times but get no reply, it’s a shame because I really rated the app, if they can come back with the issue corrected I’d give it a 5 star..Version: 3.1
✓ Mp4 SupportWas great until..... What happened to mp4 video support? Now if you click on a mp4 file, the app crashes..Version: 3.1
✓ Still not being able to move multiple files so another appNOT recommended to buy. Almost same functions as the free one!.Version: 2.2
✓ White textCan’t see text in text in app due to being same colour as background!.Version: 3.1
✓ It’s not your faultI would like a refund, deleting this app… thinking of deleting the whole iPad Pro..Version: 3.1
✓ Locked outI was happy with this app, i added a password. now Ive forgotten that password. I keep guessing, hoping a helpful message box pops up. I now have a lot of files locked up. There seems to be no option to renew the password in the app. I cant get in touch with the developers. They dont reply to email .. I’m desperate !!.Version: 3.1
✓ BasicWorks great but lacks features for a paid version. I'm glad I downloaded on free day as I'd be annoyed paying for it when their are better paid file managers. No local network search to access files on my server is the main feature I require Play various movie formats rather then using the standard movie software is another.Version: 1.3
✓ Great idea, just not trustworthy — use at your own risk!Not a bad user interface, a much-needed utility. But this one just isn’t reliable. File operations fail without warning. If you are moving files, you MUST double check and verify that what you intended to take place actually did. Large file will fail to copy. If you select 10 files to copy or move, only half of them might actually be moved. *** If you assume the app worked properly when you copy data to a new location, then delete the original files, you will lose data!***.Version: 3.1
✓ Poor Execution & 1/2 Baked App - at bestPaid for an app that does not deliver what is promised in the description. When copying to the ‘Local Drive’ it will stick at a certain % and not move. When copying to the ‘Local Drive’ the app does not copy all files. Example: tried 1 album with 9 songs, abbrittraily copied half, and not in sequence. Tried a folder of documents with 5 files, small in size- no larger than 1 megabyte, only 1 was copied. I plan on opening a report against the developer and this app. There is no reason that any money, no matter the amount, be spent for apps that do not work as described..Version: 3.1
✓ So Many ProblemsI simply don't know what I'm doing with this app. First of all, it will NOT connect to Google Drive for some reason. It will connect to Dropbox, but it refuses to access Google Drive. Second problem, the in app web browser cannot download anything other than the web page I'm viewing (the html file). I cannot download pdfs, I cannot download images, and I won't even attempt to download music files. More problems: other apps on my iPad are unable to recognize File Manager as an app I can, you know, share files with. What this app was created to do it fails at doing. If this is a place for all my files, every app on my device should be able to connect to this in order to transfer files. But there's only limited connections you can choose from, and most are apps or site accounts I don't have. Complete. Utter. Failure. I will look for another file managing app and delete this one..Version: 3.1
✓ Solid app, but issues in IOS 14This app worked well until I started using iOS 14. Since then, the app crashes any time I try to open a video file (MP4). It literally shuts down as soon as the file is opened, before I can press the Play button. Note - this also came up as an issue while using beta releases of prior iOS versions but was quickly corrected. Not sure why it hasn't been corrected this time around??.Version: 3.1
✓ Bit ordinary & buggyFound some bugs early on with the program hanging, sending multiple (LOTS) copies of emails to the same recipient (upset the receivers somewhat to find 30+ copies of the same mail downloading on their mobile device...) Tried to contact the app designers multiple times, but haven't received any response and same issues still exist. Does OK at the basics, but not particularly impressive - wouldn't recommend..Version: 1.9
✓ Some positives, needs moreIt offers more than the Files app but it also lacks so much. I would really like to see the file size of each photo as well as the folders them selves. I rely on being able to see the full path of the files and folders as it makes it so much easier when moving files or organizing them. I glad I have this app as an option but I’d sure like to see it improved..Version: 3.1
✓ File Manager ProUnable to open most of the files...says...come back later. Useless app. Asking for refund, please..Version: 3.1
✓ Works pretty good but crashesI have ios 11. This app is useful, but doesn’t work with App files. Also, it crashed on me. I couldn’t stop this App or exit to the main page. I had to go to my Home screen, and then remove/reinstall the App. I lost my old files..Version: 3.1
✓ Stop askingGreat app. Stop asking me to rate it please..Version: 2.8
✓ Don’t pay money for this AppWhy? Well, there is an issue or a bug and I’ve asked for help, but, no help is forthcoming. What a waste of money..Version: 3.1
✓ New IOS update crashing video filesI use this app every day and after last nights IOS ipad update (ipad os14) video files are crashing the app. it won’t open them. Can you update the app please. It’s been a week without a fix so I’ve abandoned it..Version: 3.1
✓ Poor.Doesn’t work properly. When I want to open files in another app... no way Jose does it work. Waste of money..Version: 3
✓ Very rude serviceNever reply my emails or tweets. You guys get 1 star because you guys are rude. Was happy now you guys a slack. I started using another app because you never returned my emails & took long time to fix this app.Version: 2.8
✓ Crap appCan’t see any of the files I want to for example are used Notability a lot and I want to see how big the files are doesn’t seem to be possible maybe I’m wrong I can’t do it I really don’t like this waste of money.Version: 3.1
✓ Not that goodWish I could get refund.Version: 1.9
✓ UselessConnected to OneDrive and couldn’t see my files. Was able to view Dropbox but couldn’t see my iCloud files. Deleted the app and downloaded it again but still nothing. Save your money..Version: 3.1
✓ No Device sharing featureToo bad that there's no automatic file sharing between my iOS devices. For example, If I make a highlight or a note on a document in one device, it doesn't show up in my other iPads or iPhones that's on the same account..Version: 3.1
✓ Help please:Cannot find a support link, so am posting here: using iPad Pro. Just bought File Manager Pro. Am simply trying to move all my documents from Google Docs (already in my iPad) over into FMP. And not have to do it one file at a time, which is all it allows me to do now. Any way to move multiple files together? I have hundreds, impossible to manage if I have to donut one by one..Version: 3.1
✓ Constant CrashingApp crashes every time I open a file from network storage to save into a local app… when switching back to File Manager, the app crashes as if it is not able to reload the previous file that was opened in the app..Version: 3.1
✓ Glitchy as hell!This could be a great app, by can't seem to import photos properly..it keeps importing the same photo over and over again..Version: 2.8
✓ This is a upgrade?I downloaded this as it is suppose to be an upgrade for the file manager that now comes on my iTouch. Unfortunately it does not work. I no longer can do anything. It does not allow me to do much. Even transferring photos is impossible as it does not save. What a poor excuse for an upgrade..Version: 3
✓ Security needs improvementIt's an ok file manager with file preview, folders, cloud storage access to a (wonderful) range of services etc. but I'm missing a couple of features such as Bluetooth transfers a la Scribe and an increased security. Security is only there when locking down access to files on the device, not when accessing files through iTunes. I'd also like to see some encryption, ratter than just locking..Version: 1.9
✓ Not user friendlyIn one word...Rubbish.Version: 3.1
