# iCamp vs Swift IDE

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Swift IDE at none against iCamp's 1. Swift IDE also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (17 vs 1). iCamp's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iCamp sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. Swift IDE asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for iCamp against 4.9 for Swift IDE. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Swift IDE has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

iCamp ships an update every 5 days, Swift IDE monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
