Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: SkySmart at 4.0 against LarniTech's 1.0. LarniTech's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 9 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SkySmart holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of LarniTech's written reviews are positive against 14% of SkySmart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LarniTech ships an update every 3 months, SkySmart every 9 months. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
