Enjoy your own encounter with a ghost in a familiar place. ■ Features • Bring a ghost into the space you see through your camera • Adjust its distance, from right beside you to farther away • Choose how long your ghost stays • Long-press to change its colors, or tap a button to change its shape • Capture photos and videos to save and share ■ On iPhones with LiDAR Your ghost can hide behind furniture and objects around you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OBAKE at none against Ghost Detector's 1. OBAKE also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Ghost Detector's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
