# MySmartBlinds vs SubSaver

The clearest difference is rating: SubSaver at 5.0 against MySmartBlinds's 2.5. SubSaver also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). MySmartBlinds's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (101 vs 2). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SubSaver sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. MySmartBlinds asks for nothing beyond the download.

SubSaver holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MySmartBlinds has 101 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of MySmartBlinds's written reviews are positive against 0% of SubSaver's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MySmartBlinds ships an update every 3 months, SubSaver weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
