Pros and cons of Filer Lite app for iPhone and iPad

Filer Lite app good for

Worked perfectly for moving some email attachments to my computer. Follow the help file and you shouldnt have any problems.
Some websites make my life difficult since they detect I am on a iPod 8 GB. Would be good to have setting to pretend I am running WinXP and firefox and all sorts of other OS and browser.
Filer is a great app, Simply one of the best, but what would make it extra super cool, is if it could be used to download torrent filed
The process to download files from the web is clunky, you have to set up a bookmarklet. But that is Apples fault. Anyway after reading the help, I was able to download, un-archive and view the documents that I needed.
If I had to pay for this itd be the best money I ever spent on an app
I dont write reviews often, but this is a great product. iPad wont allow me to download zip files, but this product makes it possible. Thanks!!

Some bad moments

this thing dont download the torrent and if you bookmark for downloading it dont work dont waste your time guys
The app alway close when it download a file im so fristrated :@ :@
It says that its uncompressing the zipped file but once its done the file is still compressed, nothing happens...
This wont play anything I throw at it. GoodPlayer is better, though it isnt the best either.
this app Filer Lite does not function after adding 6 files, I have 3 gigs available on a fresh new iPad mini fully updated on both app as well iPad. Very disappointing the free version is much better, Ive tried deleting the non free version multiple times having to try to add data again.
Downloaded file once, crashed. Downloaded again, file was nowhere to be found. Uninstalled the app.
