Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Amcrest View Pro 2 at 2.1 against NAWASA App's 1.0. Amcrest View Pro 2 also leads on ratings volume (107 vs 3) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). NAWASA App's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
