# Pic Stitch vs Picture Collage Maker

The clearest difference is rating: Pic Stitch at 4.7 against Picture Collage Maker's 4.4. Pic Stitch also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks) and chart position (#133 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pic Stitch sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Picture Collage Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pic Stitch holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 66K and 20K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Pic Stitch's written reviews are positive against 46% of Picture Collage Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Pic Stitch ships an update weekly, Picture Collage Maker every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
