# Loop Video vs InstSaver

The clearest difference is rating: InstSaver at 4.6 against Loop Video's 4.0. InstSaver also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 4). Loop Video's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (50% vs 25%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. InstSaver sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Loop Video asks for nothing beyond the download.

InstSaver holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstSaver has 1.6K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Loop Video's written reviews are positive against 25% of InstSaver's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
