Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sensitivity at weekly against PhotoSync's every 2 months. Sensitivity also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%). PhotoSync's advantage is ratings volume (8.3K vs 13) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PhotoSync sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Sensitivity sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for PhotoSync against 4.8 for Sensitivity. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PhotoSync has 8.3K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 80% of PhotoSync's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sensitivity's.
PhotoSync ships an update every 2 months, Sensitivity weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
