Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: EVBox Install at 5.0 against Wallbox's 4.5. EVBox Install also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). Wallbox's advantage is ratings volume (3.8K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

EVBox Install holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallbox has 3.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Wallbox's written reviews are positive against 30% of EVBox Install'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, EVBox Install monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and July 9, 2026 respectively.
