Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dzees Home at 61% against HIDVCAM's 14%. Dzees Home also leads on rating (4.9 vs 1.8) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. HIDVCAM sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Dzees Home sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Dzees Home holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dzees Home has 5.8K ratings behind it against 57, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 14% of HIDVCAM's written reviews are positive against 61% of Dzees Home's.
HIDVCAM ships an update every 5 weeks, Dzees Home every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
