Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Remove & Change Background at 75% against Retouch's 28%. Remove & Change Background also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Retouch's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (4.4K vs 12). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Remove & Change Background sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Retouch sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Retouch holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Retouch has 4.4K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Remove & Change Background's written reviews are positive against 28% of Retouch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Remove & Change Background ships an update every 2 months, Retouch every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
