Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Boomerang Video Maker at none against Looper's shown. Boomerang Video Maker also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.5). Looper's advantage is review sentiment (42% vs 23%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Looper sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.19 per month and Boomerang Video Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Boomerang Video Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4.9K and 6.4K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Looper's written reviews are positive against 23% of Boomerang Video Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Looper ships an update every 2 weeks, Boomerang Video Maker every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
