Both are free to download. CamHipro sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. iSmCam asks for nothing beyond the download.
iSmCam holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CamHipro has 396 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of iSmCam's written reviews are positive against 23% of CamHipro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iSmCam ships an update every 6 weeks, CamHipro every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
