The doorbell rings, but you’re not expecting visitors. With the iDor Mobile™ app, you can immediately see who’s at your door. Using your iPhone or iPad, you can now communicate with your visitors from your home or remotely on a 3G/4G/LTE network. • When someone rings your doorbell or presses the call button, an image automatically appears on your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and Apple Watch. You can now talk directly with your visitor and decide if you want to open the door. • If you have multiple cameras installed, you can also switch between interior and exterior views of your home. You can use a soft button to call up the elevator to your floor or even your apartment. As long as you are within the wireless range of your home or are accessing a 3G/4G/LTE network, iDor Mobile is always ready for you — it’s the most useful innovation since the invention of the doorbell! All you need to control the iDor Mobile app is the controller, an iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Apple Watch with Version 11 and up, a Siedle or iDor Mobile video intercom system, and a wireless or 3G/4G/LTE connection. Is your intercom system older? No problem — iDor Mobile is compatible with most video intercom systems

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FriedrichGo at 4.7 against iDor Mobile's 2.2. FriedrichGo also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 101). iDor Mobile's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 22 months) and review sentiment (47% vs 38%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
FriedrichGo holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FriedrichGo has 3.2K ratings behind it against 101, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of iDor Mobile's written reviews are positive against 38% of FriedrichGo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iDor Mobile ships an update every 2 months, FriedrichGo every 22 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
