The call

The clearest difference is price: Depth Map Extractor at Free against Depth Cam's $4.99. Depth Map Extractor also leads on rating (4.0 vs 2.9). Depth Cam's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Depth Map Extractor holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.9.

Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Depth Cam's written reviews are positive against 0% of Depth Map Extractor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
