# Nitro Photo vs Camac

The clearest difference is monetization model: Camac at free against Nitro Photo's free with in-app purchases. Camac also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 86%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Nitro Photo's advantage is ratings volume (63 vs 12) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
