Classic Setup holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Hoom has 32 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Classic Setup's written reviews are positive against 57% of Smart Hoom's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Classic Setup ships an update every 50 months, Smart Hoom monthly. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 1, 2026 respectively.
