# TiveHD vs IP Camera Lite

The clearest difference is rating: TiveHD at 3.7 against IP Camera Lite's 3.2. TiveHD also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). IP Camera Lite's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (35 vs 3). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

TiveHD holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IP Camera Lite has 35 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of TiveHD's written reviews are positive against 51% of IP Camera Lite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TiveHD ships an update every 2 months, IP Camera Lite every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
