# ProCam vs Mavis Camera

The clearest difference is price: Mavis Camera at Free against ProCam's $9.99. ProCam's advantage is ratings volume (35K vs 742) and chart position (#10 vs unranked). On rating, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Mavis Camera is free to download; ProCam costs $9.99 up front. ProCam sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Mavis Camera sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ProCam holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ProCam has 35K ratings behind it against 742, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of ProCam's written reviews are positive against 59% of Mavis Camera's.

ProCam ships an update every 9 days, Mavis Camera fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
