Verdict

The call

Media Converter and Video Compressor both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 70% of Media Converter's written reviews are positive against 17% of Video Compressor's. Media Converter also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Video Compressor's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
