Is there any app out there that will allow me to access the POI files from POI factory on my iPhone and show them on the map near my location or route the way a Garmin does?
Not to my knowledge
I've wanted something like that for awhile. Garmin apps on iPhone don't do that.

Copilot

GPX
If the POI file is a GPX file, then you can use one of several GPX Viewer apps for the iPhone and iPad. Here is a great GPX-Viewer app:

As an example, I downloaded the POI file "ROD - Resorts Of Distinction RV Parks" in GPX format. I put it in my Dropbox folder, then opened it with GPX-Viewer on my iPhone. A picture of how that looks is here:
