I just tried it, and had exactly the same experience as you. This is a shame, as I think this could be a good app if it was fully accessible with voiceover.

After downloading, and going through the welcome screens, it gets stuck and I had to close and reopen the app. Then, the choices of what kind of material you want to access is very cluttered and repetitive. Once I opened a file, finally, it is not all that user friendly with VoiceOver. You’ll have to try it for yourself to see if its something you want to work through, but the Files app is far easier to use in my opinion.

Over the same period of time, an enterprising third-party developer based in Odessa, Ukraine was busy refining its own file manager app, which outshines Apple’s in almost every conceivable way. Documents 7<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Freaddle.com%2Fdocuments&data=02%7C01%7C%7C34ec989acfbc492080c508d78fae4ace%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637135851044249095&sdata=V%2F6Wq2pHE6epqf9gAs%2BXoNZVnOZju77ncEl9NKnuH6k%3D&reserved=0> is the latest incarnation of the versatile iOS utility that started as clever web app ReaddleDocs, named for the up-and-coming startup who created it. The mobile equivalent of macOS Finder, this jack-of-all-trades allows iPhone and iPad owners to browse, view, and manage files with ease, all from an intuitive user interface that puts Apple’s own Files to shame.

Although there was little to dislike about the look and feel of prior releases, Documents 7 adds a fresh coat of paint inspired by the company’s recent PDF Expert 7<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpdfexpert.com%2Fios&data=02%7C01%7C%7C34ec989acfbc492080c508d78fae4ace%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637135851044269111&sdata=p%2FAkgNWaOzUDmUbGLJogrVQVjhm9VLbMwqOmQuPoEBQ%3D&reserved=0>, a robust tool for document editing and annotation. The result is a refined UI that makes viewing and organizing files a more organic experience, with support for iOS 13’s new Dark Mode and floating keyboard. iPad users can also now open more than one Documents window at a time, great for side-by-side comparison or to drag and drop content between them. Making its way from iPad to iPhone is the Plus button, a convenient one-tap popup in the lower right corner which speeds up creation of new folders, text and PDF files, scanning new documents, or importing existing files from iCloud Drive, Photos, cloud storage providers, or network-attached sources. Naturally, there’s also integration with the built-in Files app for seamlessly accessing content stored there, as well as opening files saved in existing Locations within Documents 7.

While Documents has always been a very capable PDF reader, version 7.0 introduces an option to turn the app into a full-fledged editor as well. After upgrading to an annual subscription ($50 per year), Documents 7 unlocks a full complement of professional tools, allowing users to edit, convert, and reduce the size of PDF files. If you already own PDF Expert 6, those editing features are available free of charge in Documents 7. Unfortunately, three advanced tools recently added to PDF Expert 7 do not get shared, so the only way to customize the Favorites toolbar or convert and compress PDF files is to pay for another annual subscription. That stinks, but Readdle offers a discounted upgrade to PDF Expert owners ($10 for the first year). For the moment, this is the only in-app purchase offered—everything else is absolutely free.

Bottom line For those underwhelmed by the built-in Files app, do yourself a favor and install Documents 7, the free file manager worthy of being installed on every iOS device.
