# LiveFrame vs Panorama

The clearest difference is ads: Panorama at none against LiveFrame's shown. LiveFrame's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and ratings volume (480 vs 49). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LiveFrame sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Panorama sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.1 for LiveFrame against 4.1 for Panorama. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LiveFrame has 480 ratings behind it against 49, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 50% of LiveFrame's written reviews are positive against 25% of Panorama's.

LiveFrame ships an update monthly, Panorama every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
