# SmartCam Pro vs Home Security

The clearest difference is rating: Home Security at 3.9 against SmartCam Pro's 2.2. Home Security also leads on ratings volume (2.2K vs 18) and review sentiment (17% vs 0%). SmartCam Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Home Security sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. SmartCam Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

Home Security holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Home Security has 2.2K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of SmartCam Pro's written reviews are positive against 17% of Home Security's.

SmartCam Pro ships an update every 3 weeks, Home Security every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
