MyGuardian Video holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.4.

Written reviews complicate that: 25% of SecureGuard Client's written reviews are positive against 0% of MyGuardian Video's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SecureGuard Client ships an update every 4 months, MyGuardian Video every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
