Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Wallbox at 4.5 against e's 3.3. Wallbox also leads on ratings volume (3.8K vs 3). e's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wallbox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallbox has 3.8K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Wallbox's written reviews are positive against 36% of e's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Wallbox ships an update fortnightly, e weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
