# Grid # vs Aftercam

The clearest difference is ads: Aftercam at none against Grid #'s shown. Aftercam also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months). Grid #'s advantage is ratings volume (10K vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grid # sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Aftercam sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Aftercam holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid # has 10K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 66% of Grid #'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Aftercam's.

Grid # ships an update every 3 months, Aftercam every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
