Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. SwitchBot sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. eufy Life asks for nothing beyond the download.
eufy Life holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eufy Life has 17K ratings behind it against 839, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of SwitchBot's written reviews are positive against 31% of eufy Life's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SwitchBot ships an update fortnightly, eufy Life every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
