Zcode Mobile is an independent third-party mobile client for the ZCode desktop workspace. Connect over your local network and keep viewing and working in your development workspace from your iPhone. Key features: • Scan the mobile-connection QR code shown by ZCode on your computer • Import a connection code directly from your photo library • Enter your computer's private IPv4 address, .local hostname, or IPv6 address by hand • Automatically discover compatible services on your local network • Remember your last connection and verify it automatically on the next launch • Enter the main workspace only after it has been confirmed reachable • Refresh, rescan, or disconnect with one tap • Once connected, hide web-page toolbars and other elements that aren't needed on mobile wherever possible, leaving more screen space for your workspace How the app stays free: Zcode Mobile is free. After 3 cumulative foreground minutes in an online workspace, an automatic ad break becomes eligible at the next conversation or page transition. First choose consented non-personalized Google ads, or decline extra data and try eligible limited ads. The selected mode stays on this device; declining extra data is not recorded as full consent. Limited ads still use necessary IP/technical data and may use fraud-prevention-only storage under Google's configuration. UMP regional requirements always apply; nothing loads if Google disallows requests. Later eligible breaks use the saved mode and show an ordinary interstitial automatically, without a View ad or Play button. Any continuous 48 hours has at most one attempt, reserved before loading so restarting cannot bypass the cap. Skip is immediately available; automatic ads can be fully disabled in Ads and privacy settings. Google personalization and publisher first-party ID remain disabled; ATT is requested at first launch after the network permission flow; allowing tracking is not required to use the app or request eligible ads. Ads may be video, image, or rich media, with no promised reward or guaranteed fill. Cancellation and declined consent never restrict core use. Shopping links are separate and never open automatically. The native interface supports English and Simplified Chinese. Automatic mode uses Chinese for the mainland China App Store storefront and English elsewhere, falling back to device region if no storefront is available. Use "Language / 语言" on the connection screen to choose either language manually. Workspace content and its own interface come from the connected desktop service and are not automatically translated. Zcode Mobile requires the mobile remote-control feature of the ZCode desktop app. It is an independently developed third-party client and is not an official ZCode product.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AGenUI Playground at none against Zcode Mobile's shown. AGenUI Playground also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Zcode Mobile's advantage is chart position (#91 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
