Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: testo Smart at 2.7 against Smart Room Heating App's 1.0. testo Smart also leads on ratings volume (170 vs 1) and review sentiment (16% vs 0%). Smart Room Heating App's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
