# Video Editor ‧ vs Video Editor

The clearest difference is monetization model: Video Editor at freemium against Video Editor ‧'s subscription. Video Editor also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Video Editor ‧'s advantage is review sentiment (65% vs 38%) and ratings volume (33K vs 140).

Both are free to download. Video Editor ‧ sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Video Editor sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Editor ‧ has 33K ratings behind it against 140, so its average is the more settled of the two.
