Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Disco Cam at none against ActorDetector's shown. Disco Cam also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 66%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). ActorDetector's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (401 vs 70). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ActorDetector holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ActorDetector has 401 ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Disco Cam's written reviews are positive against 66% of ActorDetector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Disco Cam ships an update every 2 weeks, ActorDetector every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
