Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Instant Camera at 3.0 against Noise Master's 2.3. Noise Master's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and chart position (#191 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Instant Camera holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Noise Master has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Instant Camera's written reviews are positive against 43% of Noise Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Instant Camera ships an update every 2 months, Noise Master every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and August 22, 2026 respectively.
