Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: BraviLink Remote at 5.0 against Mini WebCam's 3.1. BraviLink Remote also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 63%) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). Mini WebCam's advantage is ratings volume (90 vs 2) and iOS requirement (4.2 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
