Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: IP Camera Viewer at none against V720's shown. IP Camera Viewer also leads on review sentiment (39% vs 9%) and device support (6 vs 2). V720's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (4.8K vs 1.2K). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IP Camera Viewer sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and V720 sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $0.39 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

V720 holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.2K and 4.8K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of IP Camera Viewer's written reviews are positive against 9% of V720's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

IP Camera Viewer ships an update fortnightly, V720 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
