Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Jojo at free against RitchieCam's free with in-app purchases. Jojo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks). RitchieCam's advantage is ratings volume (151 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RitchieCam sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year and Jojo sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Jojo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RitchieCam has 151 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
RitchieCam ships an update every 6 weeks, Jojo every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
