# Cocam vs GR Lab

The clearest difference is rating: GR Lab at 4.1 against Cocam's 3.9. GR Lab also leads on ratings volume (24 vs 7). Cocam's advantage is review sentiment (61% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cocam sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and GR Lab sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GR Lab holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 24 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Cocam's written reviews are positive against 50% of GR Lab's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cocam ships an update every 8 days, GR Lab every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
