Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ToyCam at 3.3 against Depth Cam's 2.9. ToyCam also leads on price ($0.99 vs $4.99) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.2). Depth Cam's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (55 vs 6). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ToyCam holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Depth Cam has 55 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of ToyCam's written reviews are positive against 29% of Depth Cam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ToyCam ships an update every 3 months, Depth Cam every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
