Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: VB3m at 78% against Dexibell VIVO Editor's 25%. VB3m also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and chart position (#177 vs unranked). Dexibell VIVO Editor's advantage is price (Free vs $14.99) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dexibell VIVO Editor holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VB3m has 41 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Dexibell VIVO Editor's written reviews are positive against 78% of VB3m's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dexibell VIVO Editor ships an update every 7 months, VB3m fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
