Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: VideoPad at 4.0 against Video Editor's 3.3. VideoPad also leads on ratings volume (441 vs 4). Video Editor's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (50% vs 39%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

VideoPad holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VideoPad has 441 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of VideoPad's written reviews are positive against 50% of Video Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VideoPad ships an update every 5 months, Video Editor every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
