# iMotion Remote vs StopMotionCraft

The clearest difference is rating: StopMotionCraft at 4.6 against iMotion Remote's 2.8. StopMotionCraft also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 72 months) and ratings volume (267 vs 6). iMotion Remote's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StopMotionCraft sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. iMotion Remote asks for nothing beyond the download.

StopMotionCraft holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StopMotionCraft has 267 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of iMotion Remote's written reviews are positive against 36% of StopMotionCraft's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iMotion Remote ships an update every 72 months, StopMotionCraft monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
