Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: FC2Video Viewer at none against Viddle's shown. Viddle's advantage is review sentiment (55% vs 25%) and ratings volume (764 vs 11). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. FC2Video Viewer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Viddle sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Viddle holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Viddle has 764 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of FC2Video Viewer's written reviews are positive against 55% of Viddle's.
FC2Video Viewer ships an update every 5 weeks, Viddle every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
