Here’s how it works - they hold your phone in front of their face and you’ll be able to make them say whatever you like. Easy! Make them say anything you like. Get your boss to give you a raise. Don’t have any friends? Make your dog talk! iVent comes with three professionally drawn digital vent masks that you can use straight away. But that’s not all. This pocket ventriloquist mask can be customised using images or photos from your gallery. It’s easy to do.

Just like the professionals do. Loads of fun for all the family.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Screen Mirroring at Free against iVent's $2.99. Screen Mirroring also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months). iVent's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
