MenuView - Visual Menu Stop ordering blind. MenuView turns any restaurant menu into a visual guide so you know exactly what a dish looks like before you order it. Point your camera at a menu, and MenuView scans it, identifies every dish, and generates a photo of each item within seconds. Whether you're at a neighborhood spot or a restaurant where you can't read the menu, you'll always know what you're getting. See Every Dish MenuView generates a realistic photo for every item on the menu. Scroll through dishes like you're browsing a food magazine, tap any item for a closer look, and order with confidence. Scan Any Menu, in Any Language Traveling abroad? MenuView translates menus into your language at the moment of scanning. Supports English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Russian, and Arabic. Prices in Your Currency See menu prices converted to your home currency automatically. Supports 32 currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, MXN, CAD, and more. Scan Multiple Pages Most menus are more than one page. Scan up to 10 pages in a single session and MenuView combines them into one clean, browsable menu. Save and Share Every menu you scan is saved to your history so you can find that great restaurant again. Share any menu with a friend and they can view it on any device, no app required. The List See something you want? Add it to your list and hand your phone to the server. No pointing, no mispronouncing, no confusion. Built for Travelers and Curious Diners MenuView is for anyone who has ever sat down at a restaurant and wished they could see the food before ordering. Whether you're in a foreign country or just somewhere new, MenuView makes every menu readable. Download MenuView and see your next meal before it arrives.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MenuView at none against CamMenu's shown. CamMenu's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
