# GPS Map Video Camera vs MapCam

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MapCam at 100% against GPS Map Video Camera's 31%. MapCam also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months). GPS Map Video Camera's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GPS Map Video Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MapCam sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GPS Map Video Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS Map Video Camera has 44 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of GPS Map Video Camera's written reviews are positive against 100% of MapCam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GPS Map Video Camera ships an update every 4 months, MapCam every 6 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
