# Video Maker vs MVideo

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Video Maker at 64% against MVideo's 0%. Video Maker also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (10K vs 1). MVideo's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video Maker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. MVideo asks for nothing beyond the download.

MVideo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video Maker has 10K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Video Maker's written reviews are positive against 0% of MVideo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Video Maker ships an update every 2 months, MVideo every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and June 9, 2026 respectively.
