# THE CAMP vs MINI RECORD

The clearest difference is rating: MINI RECORD at 2.9 against THE CAMP's 1.0. MINI RECORD also leads on review sentiment (65% vs 45%) and ratings volume (32 vs 1). THE CAMP's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. THE CAMP sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and MINI RECORD sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MINI RECORD holds the better App Store score, 2.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MINI RECORD has 32 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 45% of THE CAMP's written reviews are positive against 65% of MINI RECORD's.

THE CAMP ships an update fortnightly, MINI RECORD monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and August 12, 2026 respectively.
