Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: VIDEO at 80% against Blackhole Spliter's 40%. VIDEO also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Blackhole Spliter's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (20K vs 154). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Blackhole Spliter holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blackhole Spliter has 20K ratings behind it against 154, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of VIDEO's written reviews are positive against 40% of Blackhole Spliter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VIDEO ships an update every 5 months, Blackhole Spliter every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
