# Detective vs Spy Camera Detector

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Detective at 98% against Spy Camera Detector's 0%. Spy Camera Detector's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Detective sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Spy Camera Detector sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spy Camera Detector holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spy Camera Detector has 109 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 98% of Detective's written reviews are positive against 0% of Spy Camera Detector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
