# Contact Groups vs Video Compressor

The clearest difference is price: Video Compressor at Free against Contact Groups's $0.99. Video Compressor also leads on rating (4.4 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (65 vs 2). Contact Groups's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (40% vs 16%). On update cadence, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Video Compressor is free to download; Contact Groups costs $0.99 up front. Video Compressor sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Contact Groups asks for nothing beyond the download.

Video Compressor holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Compressor has 65 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Contact Groups's written reviews are positive against 16% of Video Compressor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Contact Groups ships an update fortnightly, Video Compressor every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
