Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Muse Cam at 5.0 against LensMentor's 4.5. Muse Cam also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days) and ratings volume (57 vs 2). LensMentor's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 87%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LensMentor sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Muse Cam sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Muse Cam holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Muse Cam has 57 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of LensMentor's written reviews are positive against 87% of Muse Cam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LensMentor ships an update every 10 days, Muse Cam every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
