# Night Eyes vs S Camera

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Night Eyes at 65% against S Camera's 17%. Night Eyes also leads on rating (4.4 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (21K vs 19). S Camera's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Night Eyes sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and S Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Night Eyes holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Night Eyes has 21K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 65% of Night Eyes's written reviews are positive against 17% of S Camera's.

Night Eyes ships an update every 2 months, S Camera every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
