# 起点集 vs Retro相机

The clearest difference is rating: Retro相机 at 5.0 against 起点集's 4.1. Retro相机 also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 48%) and ads (none vs shown). 起点集's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 起点集 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Retro相机 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Retro相机 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 起点集 has 24 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of 起点集's written reviews are positive against 88% of Retro相机's.

起点集 ships an update fortnightly, Retro相机 every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
