Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hi DVR at 2.3 against WayCam DVR's 1.8. WayCam DVR's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (39 vs 3). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Hi DVR holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WayCam DVR has 39 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Hi DVR's written reviews are positive against 22% of WayCam DVR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hi DVR ships an update fortnightly, WayCam DVR monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
