# Video Editor vs Video Compressor

The clearest difference is rating: Video Compressor at 4.8 against Video Editor's 3.5. Video Compressor also leads on ratings volume (986 vs 12) and device support (4 vs 2). Video Editor's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

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.
