# Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote vs BT Cam

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BT Cam at 88% against Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote's 55%. Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and BT Cam sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote has 1.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote's written reviews are positive against 88% of BT Cam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote ships an update every 10 days, BT Cam every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
