Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MySmartfren at none against Tevi's 24. MySmartfren also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Tevi's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (45% vs 26%). On price, ratings volume, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Tevi sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days. MySmartfren asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MySmartfren holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 317 and 303 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of MySmartfren's written reviews are positive against 45% of Tevi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MySmartfren ships an update every 5 weeks, Tevi weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
