Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Finder Toolbox at 3.0 against CAME Automation's 2.3. Finder Toolbox also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months). CAME Automation's advantage is ratings volume (9 vs 1) and review sentiment (21% vs 11%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Finder Toolbox holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CAME Automation has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of CAME Automation's written reviews are positive against 11% of Finder Toolbox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CAME Automation ships an update every 5 months, Finder Toolbox every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
