Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: VidAngel at 4.9 against Dude Perfect's 4.4. VidAngel also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Dude Perfect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (70% vs 54%). On price, ratings volume, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

VidAngel holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5.9K and 3.4K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of VidAngel's written reviews are positive against 70% of Dude Perfect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VidAngel ships an update weekly, Dude Perfect every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
