# TMEye+ vs Guard Viewer

The clearest difference is rating: Guard Viewer at 2.8 against TMEye+'s 1.0. Guard Viewer also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 10 months). TMEye+'s advantage is review sentiment (38% vs 24%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TMEye+ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Guard Viewer asks for nothing beyond the download.

Guard Viewer holds the better App Store score, 2.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Guard Viewer has 220 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of TMEye+'s written reviews are positive against 24% of Guard Viewer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TMEye+ ships an update every 10 months, Guard Viewer every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
