# Video Editor ® vs EasyCut

The clearest difference is ads: Video Editor ® at none against EasyCut's shown. Video Editor ® also leads on ratings volume (2.1K vs 94). EasyCut's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (75% vs 60%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video Editor ® sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and EasyCut sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Video Editor ® against 4.6 for EasyCut. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Editor ® has 2.1K ratings behind it against 94, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Video Editor ®'s written reviews are positive against 75% of EasyCut's.

Video Editor ® ships an update every 3 weeks, EasyCut every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
