Both are free to download. Remux sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. FFmpeg Command Generator asks for nothing beyond the download.
FFmpeg Command Generator holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remux has 666 ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Remux's written reviews are positive against 33% of FFmpeg Command Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Remux ships an update monthly, FFmpeg Command Generator fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
