Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Plan from Camera at 4.2 against iMeasure's 3.5. Plan from Camera also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). iMeasure's advantage is ratings volume (173 vs 12). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Plan from Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iMeasure has 173 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Plan from Camera's written reviews are positive against 17% of iMeasure's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Plan from Camera ships an update every 2 months, iMeasure every 7 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
