ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Security Camera Home App holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Security Camera Home App has 739 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Yes iHome's written reviews are positive against 17% of Security Camera Home App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Yes iHome ships an update every 2 months, Security Camera Home App every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
