# Echoes From Beyond vs Ghost face detector

Echoes From Beyond and Ghost face detector both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Ghost face detector's written reviews are positive against 48% of Echoes From Beyond's. Ghost face detector also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4). Echoes From Beyond's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (73 vs 14). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Echoes From Beyond sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Ghost face detector asks for nothing beyond the download.

Echoes From Beyond holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Echoes From Beyond has 73 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Echoes From Beyond's written reviews are positive against 100% of Ghost face detector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Echoes From Beyond ships an update every 3 months, Ghost face detector every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 5, 2026 respectively.
