# PicCollage vs Chop Video

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PicCollage at 92% against Chop Video's 56%. PicCollage also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (1.8M vs 53). Chop Video's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PicCollage sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Chop Video sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PicCollage holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PicCollage has 1.8M ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 92% of PicCollage's written reviews are positive against 56% of Chop Video's.
