Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: V380 Lite at 4.0 against IP Camera Lite's 3.2. V380 Lite also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). IP Camera Lite's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months) and review sentiment (51% vs 30%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

V380 Lite holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IP Camera Lite has 35 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of IP Camera Lite's written reviews are positive against 30% of V380 Lite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

IP Camera Lite ships an update every 3 weeks, V380 Lite every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
