The clearest difference is review sentiment: Baldwin Park Connect at 100% against Genasys Protect's 11%. Baldwin Park Connect also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.4).

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.
Genasys Protect holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Genasys Protect has 91 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Baldwin Park Connect's written reviews are positive against 11% of Genasys Protect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Baldwin Park Connect ships an update every 5 months, Genasys Protect every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
