Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
sx holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RoadCam has 138 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of RoadCam's written reviews are positive against 0% of sx's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RoadCam ships an update every 3 weeks, sx monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
