Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: VideoPad at 39% against PicMaker's 0%. VideoPad also leads on ratings volume (441 vs 31). PicMaker's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PicMaker holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VideoPad has 441 ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of VideoPad's written reviews are positive against 0% of PicMaker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
