Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Zmodo at none against WallPixel HD's shown. Zmodo also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 172). WallPixel HD's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Zmodo sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and WallPixel HD sells 27 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 2.0 for Zmodo against 1.9 for WallPixel HD. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zmodo has 3.8K ratings behind it against 172, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 6% of Zmodo's written reviews are positive against 7% of WallPixel HD's.
Zmodo ships an update every 8 days, WallPixel HD every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
