# S Camera vs PicDiff

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PicDiff at 67% against S Camera's 17%. PicDiff also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.5) and update cadence (monthly vs every 7 months). S Camera's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (19 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. S Camera sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and PicDiff sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PicDiff holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.5. 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: 17% of S Camera's written reviews are positive against 67% of PicDiff's.

S Camera ships an update every 7 months, PicDiff monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and August 26, 2026 respectively.
