ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Elf Cam holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Elf Cam has 7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Days to Easter's written reviews are positive against 21% of Elf Cam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Days to Easter ships an update every 3 months, Elf Cam every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
