# i vs S Camera

The clearest difference is rating: S Camera at 2.5 against i's 1.5. S Camera also leads on review sentiment (17% vs 0%) and ratings volume (19 vs 2). i's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 7 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. S Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. i asks for nothing beyond the download.

S Camera holds the better App Store score, 2.5 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: S Camera has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of i's written reviews are positive against 17% of S Camera's.
