Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Video Compressor at 4.7 against Fake Flex's 3.4. Video Compressor also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (99 vs 7). Fake Flex's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video Compressor sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Fake Flex sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Video Compressor holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Compressor has 99 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Video Compressor's written reviews are positive against 80% of Fake Flex's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
