# PlaneApp vs ElePhotos

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PlaneApp at 89% against ElePhotos's 33%. PlaneApp also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). ElePhotos's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ElePhotos sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. PlaneApp asks for nothing beyond the download.

ElePhotos holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PlaneApp has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of PlaneApp's written reviews are positive against 33% of ElePhotos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PlaneApp ships an update every 5 months, ElePhotos every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
