National Grid Charge Smart MA holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: National Grid Charge Smart MA has 1.2K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of CrowdComfort's written reviews are positive against 37% of National Grid Charge Smart MA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CrowdComfort ships an update every 2 months, National Grid Charge Smart MA every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
