Verdict

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Swivl Capture sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. TCEA asks for nothing beyond the download.
TCEA holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Swivl Capture has 31 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Swivl Capture's written reviews are positive against 0% of TCEA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Swivl Capture ships an update every 6 weeks, TCEA every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on June 10, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
