# meShare vs Zmodo

The clearest difference is monetization model: Zmodo at free with in-app purchases against meShare's subscription. Zmodo also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#57 vs unranked). meShare's advantage is rating (2.2 vs 2.0) and review sentiment (17% vs 6%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. meShare sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Zmodo sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

meShare holds the better App Store score, 2.2 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zmodo has 3.5K ratings behind it against 651, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 17% of meShare's written reviews are positive against 6% of Zmodo's.

meShare ships an update every 2 months, Zmodo every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
