# RØDE Capture vs Camo Studio

The clearest difference is rating: Camo Studio at 4.5 against RØDE Capture's 2.9. Camo Studio also leads on review sentiment (51% vs 31%) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 70). RØDE Capture's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Camo Studio holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Camo Studio has 2.1K ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two.
