Our verdict on FileBrowser
FileBrowser is an iPhone and iPad file-management app for accessing and organising files stored on WebDAV servers, cloud services, computers, NAS devices and network drives. It is aimed at home users and professionals who want mobile access to remote storage, including offline files, without a subscription. Files can be copied, moved, renamed, deleted, compressed or extracted, while in-place document editing saves changes to the original file. Built-in viewers handle documents, photos, video and music, and iOS Files integration keeps the app connected to the standard iOS file workflow.
The pricing is straightforward: FileBrowser costs $7.99 as a one-time purchase. Its single plan includes connections to WebDAV, FTP, FTPS, SFTP and SMB, along with Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, Nextcloud, Synology NAS and QNAP NAS. The app also includes a built-in WebDAV server for device-to-device file transfer. For buyers comparing subscription-based file tools, the one-time model is a clear fit when the required workflow is file access and management rather than ongoing synchronization.
FileBrowser’s standout strength is the combination of remote connections, offline access, editing and media handling in an iOS-focused app. Password, Touch ID and Face ID protection add device-level access controls. The trade-off is its narrow platform scope: it is designed for iPhone and iPad use, rather than a cross-platform desktop workflow. Standard FileBrowser also does not provide folder synchronization or scheduled tasks. Choose it for mobile WebDAV access, offline work and direct file operations; choose another product if automated synchronization or broader platform coverage is central to your workflow.
