I'm an Android user thinking of getting an iPhone, and I see articles
about apps that let ppl share files with their PCs, and I'm wondering
why is there such an app? If I plug an iPhone into my PC's USB port, do
I not get access to the iPhone's filesysten?

 
No. All you see are photos and videos from the camera.

So you don't need to go there.

Apple likes their walled garden.  The article below mentions iTunes.
The OP didn't mention his PC's OS.  iTunes runs on Windows.  Maybe runs
under WINE on Linux.  By its name, not sure if it only allows access to
media folders, or to all folders.  Never bothered with anything Apple.
