# IPC360 vs HDReye

The clearest difference is ads: HDReye at none against IPC360's shown. HDReye also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). IPC360's advantage is ratings volume (6.4K vs 771) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPC360 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and HDReye sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HDReye holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPC360 has 6.4K ratings behind it against 771, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of IPC360's written reviews are positive against 29% of HDReye's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

IPC360 ships an update every 2 months, HDReye monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
