# pCAM Pro vs ProCCD

The clearest difference is price: ProCCD at Free against pCAM Pro's $34.99. ProCCD also leads on ratings volume (2.3K vs 222) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). pCAM Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (97% vs 80%). On update cadence, in-app purchases, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

ProCCD is free to download; pCAM Pro costs $34.99 up front. pCAM Pro sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and ProCCD sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

pCAM Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ProCCD has 2.3K ratings behind it against 222, so its average is the more settled of the two.
