# SymPlayer vs Video Speed Editor

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Video Speed Editor at 163 against SymPlayer's 3. Video Speed Editor also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). SymPlayer's advantage is review sentiment (91% vs 70%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SymPlayer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Video Speed Editor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.59 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SymPlayer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Speed Editor has 163 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of SymPlayer's written reviews are positive against 70% of Video Speed Editor's.

SymPlayer ships an update every 10 days, Video Speed Editor every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
