Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Panostory Pro at none against Image Compressor's shown. Panostory Pro also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Image Compressor's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Panostory Pro sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Image Compressor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Image Compressor holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 49 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Panostory Pro's written reviews are positive against 50% of Image Compressor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Panostory Pro ships an update fortnightly, Image Compressor every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
