ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DSLR Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DSLR Camera has 2.9K ratings behind it against 39, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Camera Plus Pro's written reviews are positive against 44% of DSLR Camera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Camera Plus Pro ships an update every 3 months, DSLR Camera every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
