Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Eraser at every 5 days against Photo Cut's every 3 weeks. Eraser also leads on review sentiment (44% vs 36%). Photo Cut's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (6.2K vs 1.1K). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Photo Cut sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Eraser sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Photo Cut holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Photo Cut has 6.2K ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Photo Cut's written reviews are positive against 44% of Eraser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Photo Cut ships an update every 3 weeks, Eraser every 5 days. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
