Neural Object Detector vs Learn Python (Step
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Neural Object Detector
This app allows users to detect and classify objects in images using machine learning models. It supports importing custom models and offers adjustable settings for camera resolution and computer vision algorithms. Processed data remains on-device for privacy.
- Object detection with YOLOv3
- Image classification with Resnet50
- Import custom Core ML models
- Adjustable camera and algorithm settings
- CPU-only mode for testing
- On-device processing for privacy

Neural Object Detector was designed to be used by both developers and people who are enthusiastic about Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Object Detection / Image Classification using the combination of both. Neural Object Detector, by default is bundled with YOLOv3 model, which is a neural network for fast object detection that detects 80 different classes of objects. In addition to that, the app allows the users to import any custom machine learning model designed for object detection or image classification, with a single tap, the downloaded model can be imported via the Files app import window which is available within the app by simply pressing the plus icon on the models view so users do not have to leave the app. The app, based on the model selected, draws a rounded rectangle over the detected objects, the annotated image can be rendered and saved to photos or shared if the user chooses to share it directly from the app. To meet every users needs a handful of settings for computer vision algorithm and camera resolution can be changed. Users have the option to enable CPU only mode, which helps test their models under that specific condition. In addition to Object Detection, Neural also supports Image Classification, by default, Neural is bundled with Resnet50 Image Classification Model. Core ML* models which are a type of "Pipeline" in the format of *.mlmodel is supported by this app for Object Detection. No other model format is supported as of now.

The machine learning aspects are all proceed on device so nothing leaves the device. No cloud services are involved. No private analytics services. If, a user decides to contact app support a handful of data will be complied into a log file and attached to the mail composer, these data include app version, app configuration, device model, battery info, device software version, CPU utilised my the app. If the user decided not share, they can simply delete it and continue with the composing the support mail. No data is that is individually identifiable is collected. https://hariharanm.com/

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Learn Python (Step at every 3 weeks against Neural Object Detector's every 4 months. Neural Object Detector's advantage is chart position (#97 vs unranked) and price ($2.99 vs $4.99). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
