Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Slow Fast Motion Video Editor at free with in-app purchases against Splice's subscription. Slow Fast Motion Video Editor also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 14.0). Splice's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 10 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
