Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CamX at 4.4 against MOHOC's 3.1. CamX also leads on review sentiment (68% vs 38%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 30 months). MOHOC's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
