Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ReadyView at 4.0 against FtyCam's 1.8. ReadyView also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). FtyCam's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (197 vs 3). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ReadyView holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FtyCam has 197 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of ReadyView's written reviews are positive against 7% of FtyCam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ReadyView ships an update every 9 months, FtyCam monthly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
