SentriConnect holds the better App Store score, 2.2 against 1.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: dwellingLIVE has 639 ratings behind it against 56, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 6% of dwellingLIVE's written reviews are positive against 3% of SentriConnect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
dwellingLIVE ships an update every 3 months, SentriConnect every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
