AspectArc is a local-first aspect-ratio studio for creators who need one video or photo to fit every format without guessing where the important parts will land. NEW IN 3.0: COVER STUDIO Pull the best frame from a clip and turn it into covers and thumbnails for every format at once. Scrub to the moment you want, or tap Suggest and AspectArc samples the clip and ranks frames that are sharp, well exposed and show faces. Choose your ratios (16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 3:4, 2:3, banners and more) and every cover is cropped around the detected subject. Save them all to Photos or share them in one tap. ONE PRICE, EVERYTHING INCLUDED No subscription, no watermark, no account. Multi-format resizing, subject-aware reframing, batch export and cover making are all part of the app. CONVERT ANY CLIP OR PHOTO Pick a clip or still, choose a target ratio, set the focal point and export a clean result. Fit and Fill modes, padding styles (blur, solid, gradient, mirror and source color), quality and codec controls, and trimming are built in. SMART REFRAME AspectArc detects faces and salient subjects on the device and plans the crop for every ratio so your subject stays in frame. The Reframe Inspector shows how much of the subject survives each crop. SAFE ZONES AND DELIVERY AUDIT Preview safe-zone overlays for common interface areas so titles and captions stay clear. Delivery Audit checks the setup before you render: format match, export resolution, safe-zone coverage, crop risk, duration and estimated size, with a readiness score and fixes. WORK FASTER Multi-ratio batch export, saved workflow presets, an offline format reference, and conversion history with CSV export. Demo media lets you try every workflow without importing personal photos. PRIVATE BY DESIGN All media is processed on the device. Photo Library access is requested only when you import media or save an export. Nothing is uploaded.

VideoView is a fast, tap-to-record video camera app for iPhone and iPad. Tap anywhere on screen to start recording, tap again to stop โ the clip immediately opens into an auto-looping playback screen with pinch-zoom/pan review and a scrubbable filmstrip. Intended users: anyone who wants frictionless video capture and instant review without fumbling through a camera app's buttons and modes โ quick reference clips, informal documentation, personal recording where speed matters more than manual controls. It replaces the extra taps and screens of the stock Camera app when all you want is tap, record, review, save. FEATURES Tap-to-record No record button to find, no mode dial to set. Tap anywhere on the full-screen live preview to start recording, tap anywhere to stop. A simple pulsing indicator shows you're rolling โ that's the entire interface. Instant, auto-looping playback The moment you stop recording, your clip opens and starts looping automatically โ no save-then-open delay, no intermediate screen. Pinch, pan, and scrub Pinch to zoom in on the playing video and drag to pan around while zoomed. Tap and drag the filmstrip at the bottom to scrub through the clip frame by frame; playback pauses while you scrub and holds exactly where you left it. Resolution and frame rate control Choose 720p, 1080p, or 4K, and up to 60fps, matched to what your device's camera actually supports. A small on-screen readout during playback confirms the real resolution and frame rate captured in the file โ not just what was requested. One-tap save Save the clip straight into its own "VideoView" album in your Photos library, created automatically the first time you save. Built for speed Prevent-sleep keeps the screen awake while you work. Dismiss-after-saving automatically returns you to the camera once a save completes, so you're ready for the next take immediately. Focus lock and a composition grid are one tap away. PRIVACY VideoView makes no internet connections, collects no data, shows no ads, and has no account or login. It uses only your camera, microphone, and Photos library โ nothing else, and nothing ever leaves your device. For iPhone and iPad. Landscape only.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Traxxtar Videoview at Free against AspectArc's $0.99. AspectArc's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
