ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

++SlideShow holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SlideShow Maker Photo to Video has 104K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of SlideShow Maker Photo to Video's written reviews are positive against 25% of ++SlideShow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SlideShow Maker Photo to Video ships an update every 2 weeks, ++SlideShow every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
