ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Guard Viewer holds the better App Store score, 2.8 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Guard Viewer has 260 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of vMEyePlus'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.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

vMEyePlus ships an update every 21 months, Guard Viewer every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
