Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Looper at Free against Loopideo Pro's $1.99. Looper also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and ratings volume (4.9K vs 587). Loopideo Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
