Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: VideoBox at 4.5 against iTransfer's 4.1. iTransfer's advantage is review sentiment (52% vs 36%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. iTransfer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and VideoBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
VideoBox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 215 and 142 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of iTransfer's written reviews are positive against 36% of VideoBox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iTransfer ships an update every 4 months, VideoBox every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
