ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

KUGOO Plus holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KUGOO Plus has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of GarageCam's written reviews are positive against 14% of KUGOO Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

GarageCam ships an update every 4 months, KUGOO Plus monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
