# 1 Second Daily Cam vs 1 Second Everyday

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 1 Second Everyday at 55% against 1 Second Daily Cam's 14%. 1 Second Everyday also leads on ratings volume (48K vs 2) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). 1 Second Daily Cam's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1 Second Daily Cam sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and 1 Second Everyday sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

1 Second Daily Cam holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1 Second Everyday has 48K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of 1 Second Daily Cam's written reviews are positive against 55% of 1 Second Everyday's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

1 Second Daily Cam ships an update fortnightly, 1 Second Everyday every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
