Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CUBE at 83% against Lidar Camera's 4%. CUBE also leads on rating (4.7 vs 1.0) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Lidar Camera's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lidar Camera sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per 7 days and CUBE sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
CUBE holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CUBE has 16 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 4% of Lidar Camera's written reviews are positive against 83% of CUBE's.
Lidar Camera ships an update every 5 weeks, CUBE monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
