Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Camp Nabby at 5.0 against Scouting's 2.0. Camp Nabby also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Scouting's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (915 vs 40). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Camp Nabby holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scouting has 915 ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Scouting ships an update fortnightly, Camp Nabby every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
