Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lorex Pro at 2.7 against NGTeco Time's 2.4. Lorex Pro also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). NGTeco Time's advantage is review sentiment (34% vs 19%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Lorex Pro holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 126 and 29 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of NGTeco Time's written reviews are positive against 19% of Lorex Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
NGTeco Time ships an update every 2 months, Lorex Pro every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and August 14, 2026 respectively.
