Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Video + at 80% against Video Saver ™'s 37%. Video + also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (4.4 vs 4.1). Video Saver ™'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
