# CameraTime vs Pro Camera

The clearest difference is rating: Pro Camera at 4.4 against CameraTime's 3.0. Pro Camera also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). CameraTime's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (67% vs 53%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pro Camera sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per year. CameraTime asks for nothing beyond the download.

Pro Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pro Camera has 1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of CameraTime's written reviews are positive against 53% of Pro Camera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

CameraTime ships an update every 4 months, Pro Camera every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
