# GR Linker vs Cocam

The clearest difference is price: Cocam at Free against GR Linker's $7.99. Cocam also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). GR Linker's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.9) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Cocam is free to download; GR Linker costs $7.99 up front. Cocam sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. GR Linker asks for nothing beyond the download.

GR Linker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GR Linker has 114 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of GR Linker's written reviews are positive against 61% of Cocam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GR Linker ships an update every 2 months, Cocam every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
