Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Resideo Technician holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Resideo Technician has 287 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of LabCom's written reviews are positive against 13% of Resideo Technician's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LabCom ships an update every 6 weeks, Resideo Technician monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
