Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Smart Security Camera App at none against Seeing's shown. Smart Security Camera App also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). Seeing's advantage is ratings volume (67K vs 2.5K) and chart position (#34 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
