# Vision AI vs Compass

The clearest difference is monetization model: Compass at free with in-app purchases against Vision AI's subscription. Compass also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (29% vs 4%). Vision AI's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 39) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vision AI sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Compass sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Vision AI against 4.4 for Compass. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vision AI has 1.6K ratings behind it against 39, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 4% of Vision AI's written reviews are positive against 29% of Compass's.

Vision AI ships an update every 5 days, Compass every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
