ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iSmart DV2 holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iSmart DV2 has 750 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of SJ5000PLUS's written reviews are positive against 24% of iSmart DV2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SJ5000PLUS ships an update every 7 months, iSmart DV2 monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
