Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CloudConvert at 75% against The Image Converter □'s 29%. CloudConvert also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months). The Image Converter □'s advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (17K vs 93). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Image Converter □ sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. CloudConvert asks for nothing beyond the download.
The Image Converter □ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Image Converter □ has 17K ratings behind it against 93, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of CloudConvert's written reviews are positive against 29% of The Image Converter □'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CloudConvert ships an update fortnightly, The Image Converter □ every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
