Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: M=Camera at Free against VideoLogs's $2.99. M=Camera also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 27.0). VideoLogs's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
