# Remote Shutter vs SayCheese

The clearest difference is rating: SayCheese at 4.2 against Remote Shutter's 3.6. SayCheese also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Remote Shutter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (71 vs 13). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Remote Shutter sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and SayCheese sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SayCheese holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remote Shutter has 71 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of Remote Shutter's written reviews are positive against 33% of SayCheese's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Remote Shutter ships an update every 6 days, SayCheese every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
