RIC's advantage is rating (2.0 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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
mLiveViewLite is free to download; RIC costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
RIC holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of mLiveViewLite's written reviews are positive against 20% of RIC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
mLiveViewLite ships an update every 5 months, RIC every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 18, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
