# Spectre Camera vs Styled Camera

The clearest difference is rating: Styled Camera at 4.8 against Spectre Camera's 4.3. Styled Camera also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Spectre Camera's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 18). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spectre Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Styled Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Styled Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spectre Camera has 2.4K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of Spectre Camera's written reviews are positive against 50% of Styled Camera's.

Spectre Camera ships an update every 3 months, Styled Camera fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
