Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Guarding Vision holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Guarding Vision has 22K ratings behind it against 157, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Eagle Eye Viewer's written reviews are positive against 31% of Guarding Vision's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Eagle Eye Viewer ships an update every 2 weeks, Guarding Vision monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
