# Canon+ vs BRAVE+

The clearest difference is ads: BRAVE+ at none against Canon+'s shown. BRAVE+ also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). Canon+'s advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and review sentiment (84% vs 58%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Canon+ sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and BRAVE+ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Canon+ holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Canon+ has 3.1K ratings behind it against 460, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Canon+'s written reviews are positive against 58% of BRAVE+'s.

Canon+ ships an update every 3 months, BRAVE+ monthly. Both last shipped on September 26, 2026.
