# Night Vision vs LiDAR Camera

The clearest difference is rating: Night Vision at 4.5 against LiDAR Camera's 4.0. Night Vision also leads on ratings volume (111 vs 7). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Night Vision sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and LiDAR Camera sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Night Vision holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Night Vision has 111 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 33% and 33% positive.

Night Vision ships an update every 3 weeks, LiDAR Camera fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 9, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
