Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Retouch at 4.6 against Remove Object's 4.0. Retouch also leads on ratings volume (4.4K vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). Remove Object's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Retouch sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Remove Object sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Retouch holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Retouch has 4.4K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Retouch ships an update every 3 weeks, Remove Object every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
