Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SmartPoint Connect at 4.7 against MobiCam's 2.0. SmartPoint Connect also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 153). MobiCam's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 8 months) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
