# Screens 5 vs NeRFCapture

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Screens 5 at 49% against NeRFCapture's 0%. Screens 5 also leads on ratings volume (608 vs 2). NeRFCapture's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screens 5 sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. NeRFCapture asks for nothing beyond the download.

NeRFCapture holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screens 5 has 608 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Screens 5's written reviews are positive against 0% of NeRFCapture's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
