# Vlogr vs Video Toolbox

The clearest difference is monetization model: Video Toolbox at free with in-app purchases against Vlogr's subscription. Video Toolbox also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 50%). Vlogr's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vlogr sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Video Toolbox sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Vlogr holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vlogr has 1.1K ratings behind it against 61, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Vlogr's written reviews are positive against 70% of Video Toolbox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Vlogr ships an update every 10 days, Video Toolbox every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
