ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Video Compressor holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Compressor has 986 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Video Editor's written reviews are positive against 75% of Video Compressor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
