Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iCamViewer at 3.1 against RAS Mobile I's 1.0. iCamViewer also leads on ratings volume (35 vs 4). RAS Mobile I's advantage is review sentiment (53% vs 28%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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.
iCamViewer holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iCamViewer has 35 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of RAS Mobile I's written reviews are positive against 28% of iCamViewer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RAS Mobile I ships an update every 4 months, iCamViewer every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
