# IDPhoto vs 证件照

The clearest difference is monetization model: IDPhoto at free with in-app purchases against 证件照's subscription. IDPhoto also leads on ratings volume (41 vs 1). 证件照's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IDPhoto sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and 证件照 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for IDPhoto against 5.0 for 证件照. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IDPhoto has 41 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

IDPhoto ships an update every 2 months, 证件照 every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on August 29, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
