# PhotoDateStamp vs CreatorGrade

The clearest difference is rating: PhotoDateStamp at 5.0 against CreatorGrade's 3.8. PhotoDateStamp also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). CreatorGrade's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PhotoDateStamp sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per year and CreatorGrade sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PhotoDateStamp holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CreatorGrade has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of PhotoDateStamp's written reviews are positive against 50% of CreatorGrade's.

PhotoDateStamp ships an update every 6 days, CreatorGrade every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
