With just hours to go until Apple's WWDC (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/wwdc/) key**te, a new placeholder app listing for a "Files" app (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/files/id1232058109?mt=8) has appeared on the iOS App Store (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/app-store/) for iPhone and iPad (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ipad/), as **ticed by Steven Troughton-Smith (http://twitter.com/stroughtonsmith/status/871602652320280576).

Details on the app are scant, as the app description is merely "Files App for iOS" and there are ** other details on the app other than an icon depicting a blue folder, although Troughton-Smith points out the app only supports 64-bit architectures. iOS 11 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ios-11/) has been rumored to be dropping support for 32-bit apps, and Apple has been warning users (https://www.macrumors.com/2016/10/06/ios-10-1-32-bit-app-alert/) about apps that have **t been updated with 64-bit support.
As we **ted in our iOS 11 wishlist feature (https://www.macrumors.com/2017/05/25/macrumors-forums-ios-11-wishlist/), file management is one area where MacRumors readers have been hoping to see improvement, and this upcoming Files app could help provide that.
The Files app is undoubtedly a default system app for iOS 11, but system apps that can be deleted have App Store entries to allow users to reinstall them. As Troughton-Smith **tes, a listing for the Activity app has also appeared (http://twitter.com/stroughtonsmith/status/871605025616916480) in the App Store, suggesting users will be able to delete the app in iOS 11, something that is **t currently possible.
Update 11:48 PM: Apple appears to have pulled the Files and Activity listings from the App Store.
