# DicksonOne vs Verkada Command

The clearest difference is rating: DicksonOne at 5.0 against Verkada Command's 4.2. DicksonOne also leads on monetization model (free vs paid) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.6). Verkada Command's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and review sentiment (48% vs 20%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

DicksonOne holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Verkada Command has 234 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of DicksonOne's written reviews are positive against 48% of Verkada Command's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

DicksonOne ships an update every 4 months, Verkada Command weekly. Both last shipped on October 11, 2026.
