# Videoshop vs InShot

The clearest difference is update cadence: InShot at fortnightly against Videoshop's every 6 weeks. InShot also leads on ratings volume (2.5M vs 364K) and chart position (#30 vs #151). Videoshop's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Videoshop sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and InShot sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Videoshop against 4.8 for InShot. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InShot has 2.5M ratings behind it against 364K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 83% of Videoshop's written reviews are positive against 86% of InShot's.

Videoshop ships an update every 6 weeks, InShot fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
