Does anyone know if there is any way to compare the contents of two folders, each with similar sub-folder structure? I’ve looked at the App Store and have found a couple of file compare apps but that seems to be it.
Hello - have you given 'Split View' a try (info HERE)? An example below on my iPad Pro (on iPadOS 16.2) - I have two Numbers databases open as shown w/ comparison between the two easily made - not sure this will solve your needs but worth a try.

First, so all are clear, by 'Files' do you mean the OS app below? When opened, three locations are listed, i.e. 'On My iPad', 'iCloud Drive', and 'Recently Deleted' - files and app icon references are present - for my previous post, I retrieved my split view databases from the Files app where the items were store in iCloud. Please provide a clearer explanation of what you want to do - thanks. DaveThanks for the reply, Dave! I did, indeed, end up using split view, with Files on the left hand side, and ES File Explorer on the right hand side. I couldn’t work out how to use two instances of Files in Split view. Any ideas if that’s possible?
Congrats! DaveI did mean the iOS app. In any case, I’ve just discovered that if you long press on one of the folders you mentioned, the app gives you the choice of opening a new window, which was just what I wanted!
