Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK at 4.3 against VIOFO Battery's 2.5. THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK also leads on ratings volume (207 vs 4) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). VIOFO Battery's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 13%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK has 207 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK's written reviews are positive against 33% of VIOFO Battery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
THINKWARE DASH CAM LINK ships an update every 2 weeks, VIOFO Battery every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
