# Hidden Camera Detector vs SpyFinder

The clearest difference is rating: SpyFinder at 5.0 against Hidden Camera Detector's 3.6. Hidden Camera Detector's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hidden Camera Detector sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and SpyFinder sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SpyFinder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hidden Camera Detector has 1.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
