DrivePadCam is a simple iPadOS app designed as a live video viewer for external UVC (USB Video Class) cameras. It's optimized for use as a backup camera display (e.g., in vehicles or for monitoring), prioritizing plug-and-play external cameras connected via USB-C. The app features: • Full-screen live preview with no recording or capture functionality. • UI controls for mirroring, 90-degree rotation, resetting the session, and selecting cameras (if multiple are connected). • Automatic handling of camera connections/disconnections, with error feedback (e.g., "No camera available" overlay). • Persistence of settings like mirror and rotation via app storage.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: DrivePad Cam at every 2 weeks against AKEEYO's every 2 months. AKEEYO's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
