# MasterPhoto vs FrameCam

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MasterPhoto at 100% against FrameCam's 38%. MasterPhoto also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ads (none vs shown). FrameCam's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (48 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MasterPhoto sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and FrameCam sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MasterPhoto holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FrameCam has 48 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of MasterPhoto's written reviews are positive against 38% of FrameCam's.

MasterPhoto ships an update every 4 months, FrameCam every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 11, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
