Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: EVmode at Free against LocalViewer's $1.99. EVmode also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.6). LocalViewer's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
