# ShutterSnitch vs Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote

The clearest difference is rating: Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote at 4.3 against ShutterSnitch's 2.9. Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (1K vs 65). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ShutterSnitch sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote has 1K ratings behind it against 65, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of ShutterSnitch's written reviews are positive against 55% of Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ShutterSnitch ships an update weekly, Shutter+ Sony Camera Remote fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
