# Continue Camera vs Pause Camera

The clearest difference is rating: Pause Camera at 4.3 against Continue Camera's 2.8. Pause Camera also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). Continue Camera's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 30%). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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

Pause Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 52 and 197 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Continue Camera's written reviews are positive against 30% of Pause Camera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
