# Slideshow Maker & Creator vs Sweep

The clearest difference is rating: Sweep at 5.0 against Slideshow Maker & Creator's 4.2. Sweep also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (daily vs monthly). Slideshow Maker & Creator's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slideshow Maker & Creator sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Sweep sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sweep holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Slideshow Maker & Creator has 2.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Slideshow Maker & Creator ships an update monthly, Sweep daily. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
