Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: X10 Linked at none against X Smart Home's 8. X10 Linked also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (2.6 vs 2.2). X Smart Home's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (283 vs 19). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
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. X Smart Home sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. X10 Linked asks for nothing beyond the download.
X10 Linked holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: X Smart Home has 283 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of X10 Linked's written reviews are positive against 14% of X Smart Home's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
X10 Linked ships an update every 4 months, X Smart Home every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
