The clearest difference is rating: NX at 4.1 against MyCam View's 2.2. NX also leads on review sentiment (58% vs 17%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months). MyCam View's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and ratings volume (349 vs 22). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
