# Video + vs S Camera

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Video + at 80% against S Camera's 17%. Video + also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.5) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 7 months). S Camera's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video + sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and S Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Video + holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Video + has 12K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Video +'s written reviews are positive against 17% of S Camera's.

Video + ships an update every 3 weeks, S Camera every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
