# Picture Collage Maker vs Nameplate

The clearest difference is rating: Nameplate at 4.8 against Picture Collage Maker's 4.4. Picture Collage Maker's advantage is ratings volume (20K vs 28) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Picture Collage Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Nameplate sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Nameplate holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Picture Collage Maker has 20K ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of Picture Collage Maker's written reviews are positive against 50% of Nameplate's.

Picture Collage Maker ships an update every 2 weeks, Nameplate every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
