ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

IP Scanner holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IP Scanner has 887 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of CCTV Super Password's written reviews are positive against 60% of IP Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

CCTV Super Password ships an update every 8 days, IP Scanner every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 9, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
