Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: VideoToLive at 4.4 against Live Share's 3.0. VideoToLive also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 45 months) and ratings volume (596 vs 2). Live Share's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

VideoToLive holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VideoToLive has 596 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Live Share's written reviews are positive against 62% of VideoToLive's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Live Share ships an update every 45 months, VideoToLive monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
