# MixCam vs DualCap

The clearest difference is monetization model: DualCap at free with in-app purchases against MixCam's subscription. DualCap also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). MixCam's advantage is ratings volume (6K vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MixCam sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and DualCap sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DualCap holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MixCam has 6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MixCam ships an update fortnightly, DualCap every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
