ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

i3DSteroidbasic holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 3D Photos has 23 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of 3D Photos's written reviews are positive against 32% of i3DSteroidbasic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

3D Photos ships an update every 79 months, i3DSteroidbasic every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
