Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mobile Camera Viewer at 5.0 against FREEIP's 4.4. Mobile Camera Viewer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (47% vs 25%). FREEIP's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
