Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HOWiFi at 2.0 against INSCAM's 1.0. HOWiFi also leads on ratings volume (5 vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). INSCAM's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
