Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SMEYE at 75% against HD E's 22%. SMEYE also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 2). HD E's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
HD E holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SMEYE has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of HD E's written reviews are positive against 75% of SMEYE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
HD E ships an update every 10 months, SMEYE every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and June 8, 2026 respectively.
